We are an intellectually diverse community of scholars engaged in research addressing both basic psychological processes and social issues. We strive for excellence in our scholarship and teaching, and we seek to cultivate in our students a dedication to the highest standards in their endeavors. We are committed to collaboration within and across disciplinary lines and to sustaining professional links with relevant local, national, and global organizations.

At the undergraduate level, our department offers a major and minor in Psychology, as well as a research-based Honors Program.  Our undergraduate program provides many opportunities for scholarship and extracurricular enrichment, including the Psychology Student Association, Psi Chi National Psychology Honor Society, and research assistantships in faculty labs.  At the graduate level, we  offer a five-year program of study in Developmental Science leading to a PhD in Psychology, with concentrations in Human Development and Public Policy (HDPP) and Lifespan Cognitive Neuroscience (LCN).  We also offer a dual PhD in Psychology and Master of Public Policy (MPP) in collaboration with the Georgetown Public Policy Institute.
