• You will work directly with psychology practitioners in the field.

You will be trained to use science to provide explanations of human behavior and attitudes, and utilize and develop your observation and reasoning skills to generate sound answers.
• Many students present their research at local, regional, and national conferences. You may also take a leadership role and help host campus-wide educational events for others in the NEC community.
