As you earn an MS in Health Psychology, you’ll be embraced, inspired, educated, and surrounded by passionate and motivated scholars who want to change the world for the better.
As the country’s largest historically black university (HBCU), we’re on a mission to transform ambitious students of all races, cultures, and experiences into successful health psychology professionals.
This new program addresses the challenges of our nuanced world, emphasizing overlooked issues like diversity, equity, and health disparity. Study the powerful link between mental and physical health in underrepresented populations. You’ll help those with mental health difficulties while becoming more marketable.
We build collaborative relationships with other universities and other N.C. A&T departments so you can apply new perspectives and broader context to a career in clinical health psychology, research, advocacy, or education. Get hands-on practice at local hospital systems and organizations. Our respected faculty research distinctive specialties that allow you to explore subjects like dementia, social justice, alcoholism, and fatigue.
We’ll help you find assistantships and other ways to offset the costs of earning an MS in Health Psychology. A mix of on-campus and online courses gives you flexibility when you need it. Choose a thesis or non-thesis degree and graduate in 2 years, ready to move on to a PhD, PsyD, or rewarding career.
Our dedication to academics, leadership, and affordability earns North Carolina A&T State University top rankings from U.S. News & World Report, Money, Washington Monthly, Forbes, and the U.S. Department of Education.
