This research practicum-based course is designed to give students an opportunity to work closely with faculty on a research project. Students attend classes and colloquium presentations where they discuss the nature and range of current research in applied psychology, education, and human development. They are also linked with a faculty member in the department and work in their research lab on a project. Research work in the lab includes attending research meetings and may include a range of different research activities such as data collection, coding, and analyses. All students also have the opportunity to conduct a review of literature, pose and defend a research question, use data available from the faculty member's research lab to explore this question, and present results of this work as a research poster or a manuscript-style paper.
