Master of Arts in Psychological Sciences

This program includes foundational courses and closely supervised theoretical and laboratory-based experience. You'll propose and test explanations about human behavioral and biological and mental processes. And you'll have opportunities to apply your learning through fieldwork and internships in local health organizations. Our faculty mentors have expertise in behavioral health, neuroscience, and in a range of areas in psychology: clinical, cognitive, developmental, health, industrial/organizational, learning, and social. The fundamental principle underlying the graduate program in psychological sciences at NAU is that all inquiry in psychology is structured by the scientific method. This inquiry is accomplished by proposing and testing theoretical explanations about human behavioral, biological and mental processes. Scientific rigor is essential to evaluate, disseminate, create and apply evidence in psychology. Students in our program take courses that are best suited for their professional goals such as preparation for doctoral programs, employment in health-related fields (including behavior analysis), teaching psychology, or other areas of employment that require research, methodology, and statistical skills. Students may also be able to combine the MA in Psychological Sciences with other certificate or degree programs. We train students to be scientific professionals, to be ethically responsible, to be committed to serving others, and to respect human diversity.
