Research Specialists learn about the research opportunities within our department, and develop skills in the areas of critical thinking, writing, and oral presentation. Students also conduct a pre-thesis research project under the supervision of a faculty member. Students should ideally complete a PSY lab course (PSY3*9H1) during the same year this course is taken; however, permission to take the lab course in subsequent years may be granted in consultation with the Undergraduate Administrator (psy.undergrad@utoronto.ca). Enrolment is restricted to PSY Research Specialists.
