An interconnected hub for science

Our department maintains strong interdisciplinary connections to the natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, and medical sciences. We offer a variety of undergraduate and graduate degree options, including certificate programs.

Undergraduate degrees

Our undergraduate degrees blend a powerful liberal arts foundation with field-based knowledge and experiences. Over 40% of our Psychology and Neuroscience majors conduct research in faculty labs, and many participate in experiential learning outside the classroom.

Graduate program

We offer seven Ph.D. specializations, and view these as interconnected areas rather than silos. You’ll work in a rich research environment where you are encouraged to integrate across these areas and while building deep expertise in your area of interest.

Award-winning researchers + teachers

Our faculty are recognized nationally and internationally for their contributions to scientific advances through state-of-the-art experimentation and theory. They are dedicated teachers and researchers who embrace innovative approaches in their classrooms and their labs.

Gain skills employers want

We provide opportunities for students to develop marketable skills inside and outside of the classroom. Our students participate in research, service-learning, practicums, teaching assistantships, and more. These experiences, complemented by a broad liberal arts education, prepare students for a variety of careers.
