Graduate Program in Developmental Psychology

Graduate student positions in Developmental Psychology are available at Queen’s University.

The core faculty members in the developmental program within the Department of Psychology (Drs. W. Craig, S. Fitneva, T. Hollenstein, E. Kelley, V. Kuhlmeier, M. Sabbagh) have research interests in language, cognitive, emotional, and social development. Each of our program members also has interests that extend beyond the traditional borders of Developmental Psychology into areas such as Animal Cognition, Neuroscience, Psycholinguistics, Psychophysiology, and Applied Developmental Psychology (e.g., autism, bullying, developmental disorders, child eyewitness).

To this end, there is active collaboration with researchers in programs outside of the area, and students in the Developmental Program are encouraged to take part in and initiate these cross-disciplinary collaborations at the Masters and Ph.D. level. Area labs are well funded by university, federal and private grants, and students frequently receive top honours in federal funding competitions.

Please see the Developmental Program Website to find out more about specific research projects happening in the developmental program and the Graduate Studies in Psychology Website for specifics regarding applications and timelines, or contact Dr. Valerie Kuhlmeier by e-mail (vk4@queensu.ca).
