Faculty who advise graduate students

To a great extent, graduate training is a matter of one-to-one teaching and learning in an advanced, and often highly specialized area of research and scholarship. Thus, in choosing a graduate school, the student is strongly advised to make a careful evaluation of the faculty and to apply to institutions at which the scholarly interests of the faculty match those of the student.

Listed in the navigation bar (to the left) in "Department Areas" are the area faculty and their current interests in research and scholarship. Each area page indicates those faculty who may admit and train psychology graduate students in that area of the UW Psychology Department. It is important to contact faculty in which you are interested, prior to application, to determine their specific plans about admitting graduate students in the coming year.
