Department of Psychology

Welcome to the Department of Psychology at Idaho State University.

Our department is committed to quality research and teaching. Our general objectives are to facilitate both undergraduate and graduate students' development of: 1) a broad foundation of knowledge of the science of psychology and career opportunities; 2) competence in organizing, interpreting, thinking critically and communicating effectively about scientific theories and research; 3) competence in specific research skills and 4) appreciation of individual differences and multicultural competency as representatives of the field of psychology.

Our faculty's areas of expertise include clinical, cognitive, social, developmental, learning, physiological, comparative, behavioral toxicology, and behavioral pharmacology.

The faculty emphasizes mentoring both undergraduate and graduate students. Faculty members are actively involved in programmatic research that is designed to include students and provide them with an opportunity to collaborate with faculty on a diverse array of research projects. Psychology faculty regularly publishes research in scientific journals and presents their work at international, national, and regional conferences. Finally, our department has a strong record of providing service to the university, community, and profession.

We offer a Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science in psychology, a Master of Science in experimental psychology, and Doctor of Philosophy in clinical psychology. We currently have 12 faculty, 7 adjunct faculty, 255 undergraduate majors, and 37 graduate students involved in our programs.
