Our Quantitative Psychology Graduate Program is designed to provide students with the knowledge, skills, and judgment needed to become active contributors at the highest-level to research, teach, and provide public and professional service in the community.

The Quantitative Psychology doctoral program is intentionally very flexible to allow tailoring to each student’s background and interests. We train students in the theory and application of quantitative methods for psychological research.
