Psi Chi

Psi Chi is the National Honor Society in Psychology. Membership is open to graduate and undergraduate men and women who are making the study of psychology one of their major interests, and who meet the minimum qualifications.

Psych Association

Even if you do not yet qualify for Psi Chi, the BYU Psychology Association provides many great opportunities for psychology students, such as help with getting involved in research and preparing for graduate school. Among the many activities sponsored by the association are fun social activities and monthly faculty forums where students can better get to know their professors. The association works closely with Psi Chi, so even if you never make it into the honor society you can still have plenty of opportunities for participation.

Intuition: The BYU Undergraduate Journal of Psychology

Intuition is an undergraduate academic journal which is managed, edited, and designed by an editorial board composed of undergraduate students, a faculty advisor, and other faculty who assist in the reviewing process. Intuition seeks to publish psychological essays, reviews, research, studies, and/or creative works by psychology undergraduates.

Intuition allows students to showcase their work and gain publication experience while also creating an incentive for students to perform research and to create. With regard to the editors, Intuition gives students valuable experience reviewing and editing manuscripts, and learning how to be critical reviewers and consumers of psychological literature. In addition, Intuition allows all involved students to network with faculty and other high-achieving students through the publication experience. Come join in our effort to further the study of psychology at Brigham Young University.

Psych Central

Psych Central, in room 1150 SWKT, offers psychology students a place to meet for group or individual study and research. Here, students can use state-of-the-art statistical software in the computer lab and get help from the full-time tutoring staff. Students will also find a library of psychology-related books and videos available for checkout, and--of course--they can stop in for a chat with the undergraduate coordinator, whose office is in Psych Central.

Student Support Services

Staff are available to assist students seeking information about graduate study and professions. For students on academic warning or probation, psychology graduate students are available to assist with time management, access to academic tutoring, or referral to other counseling services at the university. NOTE: graduation clearance is only available through the College Advisement Center.
