Junior Independent Work

Undergraduate catalogue

Empirical research is at the core of our work as psychological scientists. The primary goal of your independent work is to make sure you learn how to understand, conduct, and communicate scholarly research. The yearlong JP course sequence aims to assist you in attaining this goal via assignments that promote consistent investment in and attention to junior independent work throughout the academic year. PSY majors will complete PSY 398 in the fall and PSY 399 in the spring. In PSY 398, juniors give a presentation and submit a final fall paper.
