Graduate Program

 MA & PhD Programs

Our graduate program has been designed to provide intensive research training and to develop the capacity for a critical and scholarly approach to issues in each of the three focus areas: Behavioural Neuroscience, Lifespan Development, and Social/Personality. The relatively small size of our program affords our graduate students many opportunties to interact intensively with faculty, play an important role in faculty research laboratories, and be mentored carefully by their supervisors.

Students have the opportunity to develop breadth as scholars through participation in courses such as the focus area research seminars. For PhD students, the acquisition of applied and job-related skills is facilitated through the completion of one of three apprenticeship credits: Teaching, Research, and Community.
