M. A. - General Psychology
On Campus
 
Cognitive, developmental and social processes are emphasized in the M.A. program in general psychology. The program is designed to prepare students for doctoral work by providing training through research and basic courses in cognitive, developmental and social psychology. It is also possible to develop knowledge in other areas of psychology and/or an interdisciplinary program in consultation with the student's adviser. Graduates of the program have also found psychology-related employment in a variety of research and applied settings. The curriculum establishes a solid methodological background through a two-semester sequence in experimental design and statistics. An introduction to most of the subareas of psychology is provided in the History and Systems course, which contributes to general psychological knowledge, or breadth. A multi-course concentration in cognitive psychology, developmental psychology and social psychology is taken to develop depth of knowledge. Elective hours allow for greater depth or breadth within psychology, or exposure to interdisciplinary interests in computer science, education, business, engineering, communication or biology. Collaborative research is strongly recommended, beginning with a first-year research project developed in conjunction with a faculty adviser.
