The doctoral program in Experimental Psychology at Washington State University is designed to produce highly skilled experimental psychologists. Degree recipients are expected to be knowledgeable about their specialty areas, to have a strong background in general psychology, to be able to identify significant research problems, and to be conversant with a wide variety of strategies for generating and testing hypotheses that emerge from these problems.

Each student will build his/her program of study around one or more specialty areas: Cognition, Biological, Social, Industrial/Organizational, Health, or Applied Quantitative Methods. The program is designed to be completed in less than 5 years for students entering without a master’s degree, and less than 4 years for students entering with a master’s degree. The department has an outstanding reputation for producing well-trained psychologists who contribute to basic and applied experimental psychology in academia, government service, and private industry.
