Question about combining biology with psychology

[orange_gloves]

I know that a lot of biology majors are headed toward health care or medical school, and while I have an interest in biology I don't desire to be in the health care field

does your school have a cognitive science program?

my school had a cognitive science department, but didn't have an undergraduate major in cognitive science. i could have done my own cog sci major if i had started there as a freshman, but i transferred in as a junior, which didn't give me enough time to get things together.
i ended up majoring in psychology and minoring in cognitive science (and philosophy).

though i went with the linguistics and philosophy side of things, there's a biological/neuroscience component of cognitive science.

specialize along the way

It would make sense if you declare psychology then narrow down to specific fields of interest from there. Undergraduate psychology will include a wheighty biopsych as a course anyway. Have fun!
