心理学文学硕士

在我们的社区心理学领域，您将通过实习获得作为社区顾问的宝贵工作经验。当您使用行动，理论和研究（ART）模型批判性地反思自己的实践经验时，您将在实习中花费200个小时来学习重要的实践技能。在社区心理学中，我们将教您采用基于价值，面向行动和生态的方法进行研究-不仅关注个人，而且关注该人所处的社会，自然和社区环境生活。在发展和社会心理学方面，我们相信优秀的研究人员会在支持性学习环境中接受培训。一旦您开始这两个程序领域中的任何一个，您就将在第一年开始与教职顾问进行研究。
Our Master of Arts (MA) in Psychology is offered within three fields: community psychology, developmental psychology and social psychology.In our community psychology field, you'll gain valuable work experience as a community consultant through our practicum placement. You'll spend 200 hours in your practicum placement learning important practical skills as you critically reflect on your practicum experience using an Action, Theory, and Research (ART) model.<br>In community psychology, we'll teach you to take a value-based, action-oriented and ecological approach to your research – focusing not only on the individual, but also on the social, physical and community environment in which that individual lives.<br><br>In developmental and social psychology, we believe that great researchers are trained in a supportive learning environment. As soon as you start either of these program fields, you'll begin conducting research with a faculty adviser in your first year.<br><br>Over the course of two years, with the close mentorship of your adviser, you'll learn how to develop a research program, how to use new research methodologies and statistical techniques, and how to communicate your research like an expert. You'll generate new research that can advance basic knowledge in psychology, and you may have the opportunity to present your research at national or international conferences.<br><br>You'll form close bonds with faculty and peers through small, intensive courses, research lab groups, and regular area meetings including seminars and journal clubs.
