Its graduate studies focus on five specialized fields: clinical psychology, social-cognitive psychology, developmental psychology, legal psychology, and neuroscience/behavior studies. Faculty members deliver top-tier research, instruction, and practical training across these disciplines. The department boasts a nationally recognized dual-degree program in law and psychology, along with one of America's earliest APA-accredited clinical psychology programs. Students benefit from superior computing resources, lab facilities, and research assistance. As the department exclusively admits Ph.D. candidates, all enrollees complete a master's degree while progressing toward their doctorate.
