This course is offered concurrently with PSYC 495 (Internship & Professional Issues). Whereas students in PSYC 495 must secure and complete and internship, this course only requires participation in the class meetings; students who plan to complete an internship when taking this course should instead enroll in PSYC 495. Class meetings focus on professional development (e.g., professional networking, ethical conduct), evidence-based practices, and topics relevant to the practice of psychology in real-world settings. There are limited spots available in PSYC 495/395 each year; priority will be given to students enrolling in PSYC 495. Restriction: junior or senior standing and instructor consent (applications due to the instructor in mid-October).
