Organizations, Clubs, & Communities
The Department of Psychology sponsors student organizations that help psychology students get involved and make connections. All students are welcome to join and attend any of the events sponsored by the student groups. Student club meetings and events are published in the Psych Scoop, the undergraduate psychology newsletter.
Psychology Club
Psychology Club is open to all students with an interest in psychology. Past Psychology Club meetings and events have included: graduate students giving talks about grad school, faculty members discussing research, members attending local conferences, fundraising, and volunteering. Future meetings and events are tailored to student interests, so input and ideas are greatly appreciated. For more information, email the group at [email protected].
Psi Chi Membership
Psi Chi is the International Honor Society in Psychology to which qualified psychology students may apply for membership. Membership has many benefits.
Association of Black Psychology Students (ABPS)
The mission of ABPS is to support the academic, social, and career needs of students of African descent in psychology and related disciplines. This Association gives students of African descent an opportunity to develop a professional network geared towards social sciences. Students are encouraged to sign up for emails to receive information about current events, educational opportunities, and webinars. For more information, email the group at [email protected].

Industrial-Organizational (I-O) Psychology is the scientific study of working and the application of that science to workplace issues facing individuals, teams, and organizations. The goal of the IOPC is to help undergraduates become more involved in I-O psychology by connecting them to peers, graduate students, and faculty with similar interests.

PISA is a student group that serves and helps international psychology students to succeed at the University. Meetings are informal and open to anyone.
