The Psychology Department unites exceptional faculty, staff, and students at all levels to advance our research and educational goals. Fundamentally, Psychology aims to unravel the intricacies of human behavior through diverse perspectives - exploring how neural processes shape actions, how mental health conditions influence conduct, and how to create impactful treatments for psychological wellness. Our research spans from microscopic neuronal activity to wide-ranging cultural influences on behavior and everything in between. As a modern scientific discipline, psychology continually embraces innovative methodologies, frequently transcending conventional academic divisions.
Graduate studies primarily involve specialized coursework, seminars, literature review, and research projects within each student's focus area, with all graduate candidates advised to consult their program director before selecting classes. Certain department-wide requirements exist to ensure students gain comprehensive exposure to psychological science.
