Cognitive/ human 1xbet online games login Factors

The Cognitive/Human Factors Graduate Program at Kansas State University is designed to prepare students for careers as psychologists in academia, government, and industry. The program provides students with a broad background in the 1xbet online games login methodology used in cognitive and many other areas of psychology. Students are expected to acquire a general knowledge of the 1xbet online games login problems and practices of current cognitive psychologists in their chosen area. Current active 1xbet online games login areas include judgment and decision making, visual perception and visual cognition, evolutionary psychology, memory, cognitive aging, and event perception. Students interested in applied psychology careers are encouraged to undertake an internship in an applied setting.

Kansas State University has had more than 50 years of experience in preparing students for positions as applied cognitive psychologists. Graduates are now working as academic faculty in both 1xbet online games login and teaching focused institutions, government researchers, marketing 1xbet online games login consultants, medical researchers, grant proposal specialists, and human factors analysts. As this partial listing indicates, there have been a wide variety of openings available to graduates of our program in applied cognitive psychology. (A list of recent PhD graduates’ current positions can be seen Cogni.)

We invite applications and inquiries about our program. Please contact Dr. Heather Bailey (hbailey@ksu.edu) at the Department of Psychological Sciences, Kansas State University, Manhattan, Kansas 66506-5302.

Graduate students from the cognitive/human factors program are eligible to receive the Harry Helson Award. Students are selected on the basis of both scholarship and 1xbet online games login excellence that best typifies the excellence achieved by Harry Helson, a prominent experimental psychologist who was on the faculty at Kansas State University.

Before applying, please check the 1xbet online games login interests of our faculty on the website to ensure that someone at KSU is doing 1xbet online games login of interest to you. We encourage you to directly contact professors whom you believe share similar 1xbet online games login interests with you.
