Undergraduate students have the opportunity to gain course credit for research experience. Students who register for PSYC 494 work with a faculty member on research. They may work on various phases of a research project (design, data collection, data analysis, manuscript writing) under a faculty member’s close supervision. This course is designed to enhance a psychology major’s career pursuits for either graduate level training or post-baccalaureate employment.

A list of opportunities is available in the undergraduate advising office on the first floor of 806 W. Franklin St. Permission of a faculty research supervisor must be obtained prior to registration. Prerequisites include PSY 214, 317 or permission of instructor.
