The Department of Psychological Sciences is committed to advancing knowledge about the mind, brain, beliefs and behaviors through rigorous student-centered education. We emphasize rich experiential learning by giving students hands-on research opportunities during the academic year and over the summer. Your gift this Torero Tuesday will directly support research supplies and stipends for students pursuing their own projects, enabling more students to gain invaluable experience that shapes their academic and professional futures.
Undergraduate research empowers students to design, evaluate, and carry out research projects, whether correlational, experimental, or archival, while also building collaboration skills and a strong foundation in research ethics. Participating in research is critical for students preparing for graduate programs or careers in psychology and related fields, yet funding for these opportunities is limited and highly competitive. Please consider making a gift today to help open these doors for the next generation of psychological scientists.
