Support Student Success!
We give PBS students the experiences they need to thrive at UMass and beyond! Your contributions fund important initiatives and student activities such as:
- Career Fairs. These psychology-specific fairs run every semester: our majors
engage directly with representatives of local and national businesses, non-profits, graduate programs, and state and federal agencies. - Conference Travel Awards. Students get a chance to disseminate their research, network, and learn from experts in the field.
- Undergraduate Research Symposium. Each April we proudly showcase outstanding student research and celebrate their hard work and dedication!
- Research Funding. Help students collect data, recruit human subjects, or even design an app for their project!
- Student Clubs. Support the Psi Chi Honors Society in Psychology, the Nu Rho Psi Neuroscience Honor Society, the UMass Neuroscience Club, and the Diversity and Psychology Club.
- Peer Mentoring. SPACE: Supporting Peer Academic Commitment and Excellence, a group founded on the idea that positive social networks and academic connections increase student retention and success.
