Doctoral candidates in the Clinical and Experimental Psychology programs automatically qualify for a Master of Science in Psychology degree as they progress through their doctorate studies, based on completed coursework. This is an integrated pathway rather than an independent master's program. The psychology department has established specific objectives to equip master's graduates for advanced academic pursuits and professional opportunities: demonstrate comprehension of fundamental psychological concepts and their real-world implementations; synthesize information and theories while critically evaluating psychological subjects; develop proficiency in research technologies and digital tools relevant to psychology; master scientific research methods and data analysis techniques; effectively communicate psychological concepts through both speech and writing; engage in research activities while adhering to the APA's ethical guidelines for scholarly investigation.
