Course Information

PSY 4940 - Senior Project: Independent Research II

Institution:
Southern Utah University
Subject:
Psychology
Description:
Ideally suited to students wishing to pursue a graduate degree in psychology. This course allows students to conduct research for which they have received IRB approval. Students will complete their research project with individualized mentorship from a faculty member and submit an APA-style professional paper. Though not required, it is anticipated that many students will submit their research for presentation and/or publication. This course may be repeated for up to 12 credits with a maximum of 3 credits applied toward a psychology degree. This course serves as one option for satisfying the senior capstone requirement of the psychology major, and if used as such, this is intended as a culminating experience in undergraduate study of psychology. While it may be taken earlier, students using this course to fulfill the capstone requirement must have successfully completed 24 credit hours of psychology courses beyond PSY 1010 to enroll. This course is generally taken during the Spring semester, after having completed PSY 4930 - Senior Project: Independent Research I and PSY 4935 - Senior Project: Independent Research I Lab the preceding Fall semester, though exceptions are considered. Due to the individualized mentorship model of this course, instructor permission is always required to enroll.
