Psychology and Human Development
The Department of Psychology and Human Development is a group of scholars who work to increase understanding of basic psychological functioning in family, school, and other social contexts that influence development.
Our graduate programs, which are included in the Psychological Sciences major offered jointly with the Department of Psychology in the College of Arts and Science, include clinical science, cognitive and cognitive neuroscience, developmental science, neuroscience, and quantitative methods and evaluation. For information about our graduate programs, click here.
The department also is the home of a Master of Education program in Child Studies as well as undergraduate majors in Child Development, Cognitive Studies, and Child Studies.
The research efforts of our department are focused on increasing understanding of basic psychological processes and applying this knowledge of infant, adolescent, and adult functioning, emphasizing the family, school, and other social contexts that influence development. Department faculty are accomplished and nationally known. Many serve as editors of psychological journals, members of national review panels, and leaders in national organizations. All are authors of numerous scientific articles and chapters.
While faculty members in Psychology share a common interest in psychological processes and their development, our specific interests and expertise are diverse. Some are committed to increasing understanding of basic psychological processes, while others emphasize implications for clinical, social and educational issues. To learn more about us, look through the faculty page. Many faculty members also have homepages that provide more detailed information on individual and collaborative research programs.
In addition to our close relationship with the Department of Psychology in the College of Arts and Science, our department also maintains strong collaborative ties with other Peabody departments: Special Education, with emphases on children with disabilities and their development; Teaching and Learning, with emphases on learning processes in young school age and adolescent children; and Human and Organizational Development, with emphases on group processes, community issues and organizational development.
Faculty email addresses are listed on the faculty page.
