Okay, so I wanted to dig into the psychology program at Manhattan College. I’ve been thinking about maybe going back to school, and psychology has always interested me. Plus, a friend mentioned Manhattan College, so I figured, why not check it out?

Getting Started: Finding the Program
First things first, I opened my browser and typed in “Manhattan College Psychology”. Pretty straightforward, right? The college’s website popped up, and I clicked on the link for the psychology department.
Exploring the Website: What I Found
The website was okay. I scrolled through the main page, and it had all the basic info. I saw sections about the faculty, the courses they offer, and some stuff about research opportunities.
I started looking at the different courses. They have the usual suspects like Intro to Psych, Research Methods, and Abnormal Psych. They also had some more specialized courses that caught my eye, like one on cognitive psychology and another on social psychology. I jotted down the names of a few that sounded particularly interesting.
Looking at the Professors: Seem Pretty Legit
Next, I checked out the faculty page. They had pictures and short bios for each professor. I read through a few of them. It seemed like most of them had PhDs and were actively involved in research. That’s a good sign, I guess.

Research: Opportunities to Get Involved
The research part was interesting. I noticed they mentioned opportunities for undergrads to get involved in research projects. That’s something I’d definitely want to do if I went back to school. I made a note to look into that more if I decide to apply.
What to Do Next: Still Thinking
So, after spending some time poking around the website, I have a better idea of what the psychology program at Manhattan College is all about. It seems decent, but I’m not completely sold yet.

- I think I need to compare it to a few other programs before I make any decisions.
- It might also be helpful to reach out to the department and ask some specific questions.
For now, I’ve saved the website to my bookmarks. I’ll probably revisit it in a few days after I’ve done some more digging. The journey of a thousand miles, or in this case, a potential degree, begins with a single click, I suppose!
