Honours Student

The Psycle Laboratory is excited to welcome honours students who are passionate about research in reproductive psychology. Applications are (typically) accepted at the beginning of the Fall term. Students can contact Dr. Balsom if they are in the process of applying for the honours program, but working in the lab as an honours student is contingent upon acceptance into the honours program from the department. 

 

Application Process:

• Eligibility: Interested psychology majors should complete the lab application below

• Selection Process: Applications will be reviewed, and a limited number of candidates will be invited for interviews. Typically, 1-2 honours students are selected each year.

 

Honours students will have the opportunity to undertake an honours thesis, contributing to meaningful research while working closely with our team.

 

It is the expectation of participating in an honours thesis that we will work towards publishing your project.
