Where can I get information about graduate school in psychology?
Many careers directly in the field of psychology (e.g., clinical psychologist, school psychologist, social psychologist, experimental psychologist, industrial/organizational psychologist, biopsychologist) require graduate training. The American Psychology Association publishes a book titled, Graduate Study in Psychology, every year that lists detailed information about all the graduate programs (both Ph.D. and master’s) in psychology across the country and can be searched by area of study, state, and other important criterion. There is a copy of this book in the Psychology Department office (Smullin 220) as well as in the Hatfield Library. The following websites can also help you explore graduate school possibilities as well. • About.com: Psychology Graduate Programs • APA: Getting Into Graduate School Of course, you can also talk to any faculty member in the Psychology Dept. about graduate school. They have all been there at some point and have a lot of information!
