Ne öğreneceğim?
The Psychology graduate program (MSc) is a research-intensive program with three distinct fields of study providing a sound preparation for careers in health, science or communications-related fields and a natural stepping stone to pursue further doctoral (PhD) studies, including our brand new PhD program in Psychology. The Master of Psychology program offers three unique areas of study:Health Psychology focuses on affect regulation, analysis of healthcare systems, attachment relationships, cross-cultural relations, community and family dynamics, dreams, emotional intelligence, human sexuality, personality and psychopathology, and stress and coping. Developmental Psychology studies the acquisition of language, attachment relationships, community and family dynamics, culture and development, identity formation, and psychosocial functioning both in youth and aging. Cognition/Perception/Neuroscience examines cognitive enhancement and dementia, psycholinguistics, number representation, neural mechanisms of memory and learning, visual cognition, multi-sensory perception and action, neural plasticity and the molecular/cellular foundations of stress biology and neuropsychiatric disorders.In the Psychology Graduate Program, there are numerous opportunities to engage in experiential learning. Primarily, experiential learning takes place through your own thesis research which entails advanced, one-on-one ‘learning through doing’ with your faculty advisor. Additional opportunities could include laboratory research training, broader academic training, community-based research projects, and travel to conferences/workshops to present research and engage with professional academic communities in your field of study. The networking opportunities and skill development you will receive in the Psychology Graduate Program has helped our students go on to careers in academia, government, non-profit, and industry.
