Master's Projects

Students begin their M.A. Projects during the Fall semester of their first year and continue them throughout their second year, culminating in a paper and PowerPoint presentation.  The project involves teaching undergraduate psychology courses, PSY 3600/1000H and/or PSY 4600, and completing a Research and Development (R&D) project based on your management of the system for which you are selected.
