Overview

Through our master’s program, we strive to promote the study of psychology as a science, as a profession, and as a means of promoting human welfare.

Our Psychology coursework from University of Louisiana at Lafayette will provide an advanced education in psychological science and will help you become a competitive candidate for doctoral-level training programs in both applied psychology—clinical or counseling, for example—and experimental psychology, including cognitive and developmental psychology.

Career Opportunities

Graduates of our Master’s program have gotten jobs in teaching, corrections, and case management.

However, most students go on to doctoral-level study. Graduates have gotten into PhD programs in Clinical Psychology, Social Psychology, Cognitive Science, and Sports Psychology, to name just a few paths students have taken. About 9/10 of our graduates who apply for doctoral programs successfully enroll.
