Overview

It does not prepare students to be clinical psychologists, school psychologists, or family life counselors. Students of the Developmental Psychology delivered by Cornell University develop an individual program of study and research in consultation with their Special Committee, which is chaired by a member of the Field of Human Development but may include faculty members from other fields. Students may be required to complete two semesters of graduate-level training in statistics.

Key Facts

All students are expected to acquire a basic background in the behavioral sciences and to master a broad base of knowledge of human development in the context of family and society. The M.A. degree program requires a research thesis.

Research facilities:

There are a number of fully equipped laboratories directed by individual faculty members who are conducting observational and experimental studies of basic processes in development. Students may also become involved in research or demonstration projects in the Family Life Development Center (child maltreatment and families under stress) and the Bronfenbrenner Life Course Center (adulthood and aging).
