PSYC Field of Study

The Field of Study (FOS) curriculum for Psychology is an 18-credit-hour set of lower division courses that must be applied to the Bachelor degree in Psychology by public colleges and universities in Texas, regardless of degree designation. If a student successfully completes a FOS for an established degree program, the student may transfer that block of courses for full academic credit at any Texas public college or university. The transferred FOS courses must be substituted for that institution’s lower-division requirements for the discipline degree program into which the student transfers. If a student completes only part of the FOS, then credit for those courses must also apply toward the major.
