Biology
Coming into college, I didn’t know that I would actually be doing research as an undergraduate student. This has been eye-opening into what research really is like, especially working in a lab and within a team.

Psychology
My favorite courses this semester are Physio Psychology and Human Cognition. These are part of my Psychology major. I love the teacher-student interaction that I get from both my majors. Professors form a mentor-like relationship with their students and that is what I like.

I took two full semesters before declaring, and I am still on track to graduate in four years with a double major. It is totally manageable and possible! It helps that Cal Lutheran has so many class options and is not overly impacted like some programs at other schools.
