Skinner, Gordon Allport, Jerome Bruner, George Miller, and Henry Murray. Psychology is one of the most popular courses of study among undergraduates at Harvard.

The Department of Cognitive, Linguistic, and Psychological Sciences (CLPS) was created in 2010 by joining the departments of Psychology (established in 1892) and Cognitive & Linguistic Sciences (formed in 1986). State-of-the-art research in mind, brain, behavior and language requires spanning multiple levels of analysis and using a range of approaches and methodologies, and the integration of these two closely related departments has created an environment where this intellectual synthesis can flourish. The creation of CLPS reflects Brown's philosophy to build bridges between disciplines and to encourage interdisciplinary studies.
