Graduate Program Subplans
The Department of Psychology and Neuroscience at the Â鶹ÊÓƵ offers PhD degrees in five subplans: Behavioral, Psychiatric, and Statistical Genetics, Behavioral Neuroscience, Clinical Psychology, Cognitive Psychology/Cognitive Neuroscience, and Social Psychology. Although we do not offer a graduate degree in developmental psychology, a substantial number of our faculty have related research interests. The department also participates in a number of interdisciplinary degree and certificate programs. Use the links below to learn more about the different program subplans.

We provide our students with a tuition waiver and a stipend, generally funded by teaching or research assistantships, for the first five years of the program. These assistantships provide a monthly stipend, tuition waiver, and cover part of the student health insurance. The student is responsible for the remaining health insurance costs.
