Pursue postgraduate studies in psychology and join a vibrant, inclusive community dedicated to research and learning. This program supports investigations across our specialty areas, such as Developmental Psychology, Organizational Psychology, and Political Psychology. A research-based Master's degree hones your investigative skills, equipping you for professional roles or doctoral pursuits. The PhD, a doctoral program, emphasizes independent scholarship. Both degrees evaluate candidates through a single comprehensive work—a dissertation or thesis—showcasing original research and ideas. Completion of mandatory training is also required.
