Students have many opportunities to develop their application skills with field research and applied projects. Most of these opportunities are through the psychology department's Institute for Psychological Research and Application (IPRA).

Internships

After completion of their master's degrees students are encouraged, although not required, to undertake full-time internships of up to one year in duration. Recent examples of internship placements include Rand Corporation, Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, Google, HumRRO, National Institutes for Occupational Safety and Health, Development Dimensions International, PreVisor, and Denison Consulting.
