Psychology (MS)


The department does not admit students whose objective is this master’s degree. However, if a student accepted in the doctoral program does not have a master’s degree, the department strongly recommends completion of the requirements for the MS in Psychology in the course of work toward the PhD degree. This involves 24 graduate units of psychology course work and a thesis.
