Department of Psychology & NeuroscienceUNC-DUKE Collaborative Graduate Certificate Program in Developmental Psychology
The faculties in developmental psychology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Duke University offer a collaborative approach to graduate training in developmental psychology: the UNC-Duke Collaborative Graduate Certificate Program in Developmental Psychology. Graduate students at Duke in the Department of Psychology & Neuroscience and students in UNC's Department of Psychology & Neuroscience can apply to this program that offers training opportunities in addition to those of their home department. Students in the certificate program attend developmental talks at both universities and have opportunities to take developmental seminars or engage in supplemental research training with the faculty of their non-home university. Among the research emphases of the participating faculty are cognitive development, social development, applied development, and developmental psychobiology. Students apply to the program by the beginning of their third year of graduate study.
