Welcome to 2022!
Welcome back to campus everyone! We are so happy to see all, well half of, your bright and shining faces this Spring! Normality is on the horizon and we are getting ever so close to going back to pre-pandemic gatherings and learning on Campus. However, that does not mean you have to be on campus to learn and earn a BS in Psychology!
Here in the Psychology department, we are always trying to make your experiences something to remember long after graduation. In this issue, we are saying farewell to a longtime faculty member, highlighting the success of the Forensic Psychology Program, The brand new Career Blog updates, and The first psychology undergraduate program that is fully online!
Being digital makes it harder to connect with your cohorts, we get that. Make it one of your goals while at Mason to connect with your fellow Psychology majors, both in the classroom and beyond. Whether it’s through joining the departments Mason360 page, the Psychology Club, volunteering in a faculty research lab, applying for the Honors Program in Psychology, or joining us for virtual Brown Bag Lectures in the fall, reach out and make the most of your time as an undergraduate student in the department. We’re happy that you’re here and are looking forward to helping you feel at home at Mason.
There are great opportunities for students and alumni to get involved, reach out to one another, build professional development skills, and put them into practice to establish a career. Specific examples include Forensic Psychology workshops, the Hire Mason program called "Handshake", All of this and more are awaiting you on the Career Blog.
Are you an Alumni? Stay connected to us by filling out our new “Where are they now?” survey on the “Alumni” tab of our department website under “connect with us”. We want to hear from our alumni about how you are doing, your successes, and any achievements you have accomplished since graduation. Don’t forget to follow us on Facebook and Twitter!
