Senior Thesis I (Year-Long)

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 empirical research. The yearlong thesis course aims to assist you in attaining this goal via assignments that promote consistent investment in and attention to the thesis throughout the academic year. PSY majors will complete PSY 498 in the fall (graded P/D/F) and PSY 499 (letter graded) in the spring. In the fall, seniors submit a thesis progress & planning form and partial draft; students must receive a passing grade in PSY 498 to enroll in PSY 499.
