What you study	Psychology	Psychology Sociology	Psychology Sociology
What it is	Psychology at Brock is a broad study of how people think, feel, and behave. You'll learn about the brain, emotions, learning, relationships, and mental health through lectures, labs, and research. This program includes a co-op option, letting you work in clinical settings, schools, or research labs while you study, which gives you real-world experience alongside your degree.	This program prepares you to work directly with children and young people who face challenges like trauma, behavioural issues, or family instability. You study psychology and sociology to understand how people develop and what shapes their choices, then learn hands-on skills for supporting and guiding kids in schools, group homes, hospitals, and community agencies. It suits people who want practical caregiving work rather than classroom teaching or clinical therapy.	This program combines the study of how children and young people develop psychologically and socially with broader sociology, so you learn both individual psychology and the family, school, and community systems that shape them. Unlike a straight psychology program, it emphasizes youth as a specific age group and their relationships within society. It suits people drawn to understanding young people's behaviour and thinking, and who want grounding in both psychological science and social context.
