MA/MS in Behavioral Sciences

This master's degree in psychological science centers on the study of mind, brain and behavior. It is coordinated by a group of program faculty, and each student completes a thesis along with elective units. Instruction is largely individualized. Every student works closely with a faculty adviser, and research can be carried out in campus laboratories, in clinics, or at other institutions around the Bay Area. With approval, students may also take certain courses at UCSF. Applications go through Cal State Apply, and the department considers applicants for fall entry only. Interested applicants should confirm timing and background expectations with the department, and should read the current bulletin entry for advising guidance and the full list of degree requirements before applying.
