Welcome to the Department of Psychology at Northwestern University, a prestigious academic department in the field of psychological research and education. We offer comprehensive programs and research opportunities at all levels, from undergraduate to graduate studies, covering a broad spectrum of psychology. Our faculty consists of internationally renowned experts whose research is frequently published in top academic journals and featured in mainstream media. Northwestern's Psychology Department dates back to 1909, when it quietly separated from the Philosophy Department and became its own entity. The Department initially included only two regular faculty members, Walter Dill Scott and Robert Gault, and offered eight courses. Since 1909, the Psychology Department has grown considerably; we now have 41 faculty members and offer more than 80 undergraduate and graduate courses.
USP's Institute of Psychology has 80 teaching staff and 129 technical-administrative staff, 400 undergraduate students and 561 postgraduate students.
