West Virginia University's PhD program in Behavior Analysis aims to cultivate professionals capable of excelling in diverse academic and practical environments, enhancing comprehension of behavioral principles, and implementing these principles to address important societal issues. The program equips students with expertise in fundamental research, theoretical frameworks, and practical applications of behavioral science. Through a combination of research projects, academic studies, and hands-on training, participants acquire competencies in both experimental and practical behavior analysis, building robust conceptual foundations and methodologies for creating behavioral solutions. While the curriculum blends fundamental, theoretical, and applied components, students can choose to focus on either basic or application-oriented research.
