The Graduate Field associated with the Department of Psychology is the Field of Psychological Sciences and Human Development (PSYHD). The PSYHD field includes faculty members from within the Department of Psychology and faculty members from other departments who have complimentary research interests and expertise. The goal of the PSYHD Field is to educate students to become researchers, scholars, and teachers who will contribute to the future of psychology as a scientific discipline in academic or other research-oriented settings.
