University of Minnesota Diversity in Psychology Program for under-represented graduate training groups!

Diversity in Psychology Program
University of Minnesota
October 10-12, 2018

The Diversity in Psychology Program is designed for individuals who are historically under-represented in psychology graduate programs and who are interested in learning about graduate training in the Department of Psychology, the Institute of Child Development, or Educational/School Psychology. The program will feature a coordinated set of formal and informal experiences designed to familiarize participants with strategies for constructing successful graduate school applications, and to provide them with the opportunity to learn more about the experience of graduate education in our departments.

Individuals who meet the following criteria are eligible to apply:
-Participants who are enrolled in a college or university as a junior or senior, or who have graduated within the last two years (i.e., 2016 or thereafter). Individuals currently enrolled in a terminal masters-level graduate program in psychology also are eligible. (Students enrolled in a Ph.D. or Psy.D. program are ineligible.)
-Participants who identify as a member of groups under-represented in graduate training in psychology, including members of ethnic and racial minority groups, low-income, persons with disability, military veterans, LGBTQ+, and participants who are first- generation college students or graduates.
-Participants who are committed to pursuing doctoral training in psychology in one of our three departments.

The deadline for the receipt of applications is Wednesday, August 15, 2018 at 5 pm (CST). Application information can be found here: https://cla.umn.edu/psychology/graduate/diversity-and-inclusion/diversity-psychology-program
