PSYC 4990

Students will carry out a detailed investigation of a topic of interest relevant to psychology. They will carry out the investigation under the supervision of a faculty member with expertise in the area, in the form of a literature survey and review. Students will be required to identify relevant sources of information and will submit a final paper representing an original literature review and an empirical research design. NOTE: This is a seminar-based course. The final paper for this course will be used for subsequent completion of a thesis in PSYC 4995. Students are strongly advised to seek methodological advice in the development of their proposal.
