Women in Science Fund
Women are still underrepresented in scientific and technological fields, and PBS hopes to change that. Our department extends support to women students and faculty as they pursue careers in psychological science, and it encourages and supports research related to the issue of women in science.
Kenneth Heller Minority Student Support Fund
Professor Emeritus Ken Heller matches funds for any gift given to this fund, which supports awards, fellowships, scholarships, or support for minority students. Recipients are American citizens from minority groups who are underrepresented in the psychology profession.
