MA in Psychology (Thesis) in Montreal Canada | Concordia University

The Master of Arts in Psychology is an intensive research-focused program, typically designed for students to progress into the PhD program within one to two years. Participants primarily specialize in one of four key research fields: behavioral neuroscience, clinical and health studies, cognitive science, or human development and developmental psychology. The program offers two distinct pathways. The Research Pathway caters to those aiming for careers in academic research, corporate sectors, or higher education. Alternatively, the Research and Clinical Training Pathway combines professional psychological service training with research, opening doors to opportunities in healthcare, policy-making, research institutions, and academia. This clinical training track holds full accreditation from both the Ordre des Psychologues du Québec and the Canadian Psychological Association. Our department prepares future researchers through cutting-edge laboratory experiences.
