Program Overview

The MA in psychology is distinguished by its emphasis on basic research and the application of research to solve practical problems in families, industry, government, and health care settings. Because of the program’s proximity to Washington D.C., students have access to many employment and continuing education opportunities in research, academia, and consulting within government, public, and private settings.

The psychology MA offers the following concentrations:

  • Applied developmental psychology
  • Clinical psychology
  • Cognitive and behavioral neuroscience
  • Human factors/applied cognition
  • Industrial/organizational psychology

The human factors/applied cognition concentration trains students in the application of cognitive science to real-world problems.

Faculty members help place students who do not have real-world experience in a part- or full-time practicum before completing the degree.
