The Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology program equips graduate students with the expertise, competencies, and practical training needed to excel as research professionals, exploring mental structures, cognitive processes, and psychological phenomena. As an interdisciplinary field, psychology bridges the biological and social sciences. This advanced program features three specialized tracks that collectively cover the spectrum of psychological science: (1) Social-Personality Psychology, (2) Behavioral Health, and (3) Evolutionary, Comparative, and Cognitive Psychology. These focus areas examine psychological phenomena through distinct yet interconnected perspectives. Students gain comprehensive knowledge across multiple concentrations while pursuing in-depth specialization in one chosen track. Applicants must select one concentration when applying for admission.
