In the Experimental Psychology Concentration students may specialize in any area of psychological research — clinical, cognitive, developmental, neuroscience or social — and prepare for doctoral studies or a research job in the public or private sector. Our program follows a mentorship model, and students receive extensive training in research design and analysis while working closely with their faculty advisors, who bring demonstrated strengths in biological, cognitive and social psychology.
