The Psychology & Neuroscience community is dedicated to creating an academic and social environment where each person can flourish. We have ongoing Diversity, Equity & Inclusion efforts, led by the Psychology & Neuroscience Task Force, to develop strategic priorities for diversity and inclusion with measurable outcomes. It is our priority that all students, staff, faculty, mentors, and trainees – every member of our community – is represented and supported.
In the Department of Psychology we focus on the investigation of behavior and its cognitive, neural and hormonal underpinnings in the full range of environmental situations. Our strengths lie in four broadly defined areas of development, cognition, neuroscience, and social and personality psychology. We develop and conduct theoretical and translational research to advance health and well-being.
