Experimental Psychology
Doctorate in Experimental Psychology
The Experimental Psychology program provides cutting-edge training in a variety of
sub-disciplines within psychology. Our Ph.D. program consists of four subspecialty
tracks: cognitive psychology, comparative-neurobiological psychology, developmental
psychology and social-personality psychology. The program adopts the perspective that
psychology is a broad discipline with a central focus on understanding, predicting
and enhancing the broad range of human behavior and experiences using a variety of
perspectives. To accommodate this broad spectrum, we examine the biological, comparative,
cognitive, developmental, social and personality factors that affect behavior.
