EIU B.S. in Neuroscience

"I loved my experience as a student in the psychology department and the relationships I have formed. The connections I have made with faculty and my fellow psychology majors through my research and academic experiences is beyond what I could have hoped for, in my undergraduate career."

"The engaging professors, courses, and unique opportunities for fieldwork prompted me to shift majors and pursue an entirely different career. In fact, the professors encouraged me to enroll in the school psychology graduate program at EIU, and it was one of the best decisions I could have made. I went on to earn my PhD in School Psychology, and I'm now living my dream as an associate professor at the University of Washington, Tacoma.”

"Small class size promotes a better quality of learning through discussion opportunities with both students and the professor. The psychology faculty at EIU go above and beyond expectations for the success of their students."

"Through the program, I studied and traveled abroad, received hands-on independent study research experience, and established a firm foundation in research and statistical methods which I use daily. I witnessed members of the faculty invest themselves into their students and really care about their long-term success.”
