Ph.D. Program in Basic and Applied Social Psychology
The Basic and Applied Social Psychology (BASP) PhD Program at the CUNY Graduate Center trains students in the theories, principles, and research methods relevant to the conduct of social psychological research. The primary goal of the training program is to produce rigorous, competent, and creative researchers who are well-versed in the traditional canon of social psychology, but can apply this knowledge to engage with innovative questions and pursuits.
A strong focus on research methods, statistics and apprenticeship training under the direction of prominent and distinguished faculty prepares our students for a variety of positions following graduation. Hear from some of our alumni below.
