Introduction
The Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Behavioral Science is a research-intensive program with a strong focus on health psychology and methodology topics. There are few programs nationwide in which you can study both of these topics simultaneously. Through this integration, we prepare students for traditional academic career positions and positions in contract research, service, and the private sector. In addition to our leading strengths in these two areas, we offer robust coverage of social, cognitive, and developmental perspectives in our training while attending to individual and group differences and diverse social, familial, and community settings. We welcome the full range and diversity of life experiences and perspectives of our students and faculty and value the importance of multicultural competence in teaching, research design, and practice in behavioral science.
