Undergraduate Studies and Advising

The UW Psychology program for undergraduate majors stresses scientific and statistical reasoning skills that help students evaluate data, claims, and theories in both the academic and popular literatures. We provide undergraduates research participation, applied fieldwork and supervised teaching opportunities. Students make use of what they learn in various career paths including areas such as counseling, education, and basic research. We also provide opportunities for a wide range of UW majors to include psychology as part of their general education.

The Undergraduate Advising Office, located in room 119A Guthrie Hall, serves as the main resource for declared and prospective psychology majors. The office is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 to 4:30. You can make an appointment online or by calling (206) 543-2698. Our email address is psyadvis@u.washington.edu. Students are also invited to visit the Undergraduate Study Center, located in room 113 of Guthrie Annex 4. The Study Center is open Monday through Fridays from 9:00-4:30.
