Catholic University’s Department of Psychology is a community of researchers – professors, lecturers, and students – committed to improving the human condition. The department has 11 labs producing nationally and internationally acclaimed research. Undergraduate and Graduate students have the opportunity to participate in research apprenticeships in any one of our many research labs, working side by side with faculty members and doctoral students.
The psychology department offers undergraduates the best of both worlds: the close personal attention found at a small liberal arts college, and the research opportunities and facilities typical of a large research university.
The Department of Psychology is home to several research labs. Both undergraduate and graduate students have opportunities to work in these labs.
