课程
每个学生都可以与主要指导老师一起工作. 在第一学期结束前, 学生, 和顾问一起, 选择另外两名教员加入论文委员会.
Ph值.D. student's initial task is the production of a second-year research project. 这工作从第一年的第一天开始. 在第一年, 选择一个主题, 进行背景阅读, 设计和试验的电子游戏正规平台项目, and a proposal (written much like a grant proposal) is submitted to 学生's three-person committee. 该提案在委员会面前得到口头辩护, and must have final approval by the committee by the end of September of Year Two.
第二年, 任何需要的进一步试点工作都已进行, 已获得IRB批准, 收集和分析的数据, and the second-year research project written and defended (by March 31 of Year Two).
The research project reports original empirical research initiated and carried out while in our program. Students may not bring previously collected data and use these data for the project. Although the entire project is carried out in close collaboration with the advisor, 学生应该是主要贡献者. Thus 学生 should qualify for senior authorship on the project when it is submitted for publication (which we strongly encourage).
The project is to be in the form of an article publishable in a good journal in 学生's area. 评估是基于可发表性的标准, with the exception that results need not have turned out statistically significant.
The second period in your graduate program is characterized by a shift to more independent work and an even more intensive focus on research. The third year focuses on two requirements that you work on simultaneously, 第三年的文献综述和论文开题. 第四年的重点是论文电子游戏正规平台. Even more than in the first two years, however, meeting the formal requirements is the minimum. 学生的主要工作是进行电子游戏正规平台和制作简历.
在第三年的早期, students meet with their committee to form a tentative plan for Years Three and Four. This plan should be formalized and signed by the committee (Form 5) by December 1 of Year Three. 鼓励学生开始他们的论文试点电子游戏正规平台, 如果他们还没有这样做的话, 在三年级的第一学期.
学生必须在全日制的基础上参加这个项目. 该项目计划在五年内完成.
The 博士 指导 程序 (PDMP) is a student-run initiative that offers mentorship to prospective applicants to psychology and neuroscience doctoral 项目. The goal of this program is to offer one-on-one mentorship and institutional knowledge to applicants who may not have access to such advantages.
Participants in the program will be matched with current graduate students or postdocs in the department who will mentor them on the process of applying to psychology and neuroscience Ph.D. 项目. Participants and their mentors will work together to decide how and when to be in contact (e.g., 电子邮件, 松弛, Zoom, 电话, 小组讨论诸如如何细化电子游戏正规平台兴趣之类的话题, 如何制作简历, 如何写一篇引人注目的个人陈述, or any other aspect of the application process about which participants have questions.
这个项目对所有人开放. We especially encourage people who do not have access to mentorship for their doctoral applications to apply. We expect this program to be particularly valuable for those who do not expect to receive feedback on their graduate applications from two or more faculty members.
Please note that participation in this program is NOT a requirement for application or admission to the program, NOR will it be factored intothe admissions decisions made by the department. Your official application will NOT indicate whether you participated in this program.
We invite prospective applicants to apply until 11月15日 to ensure sufficient time to provide substantive mentorship before the doctoral program's application deadline on 12月15日.
This program is designed to be fun, flexible, interactive, inclusive, and minimally time-consuming. 我们知道，申请过程可能具有挑战性, 所以我们愿意提供一切力所能及的帮助, 同时确保我们不会占用你多余的时间.
Please complete this sign-up form and we will reach out to you within a week.
