History of the Department of Psychology


Psychology courses at Weber State University date back to 1892, the year that the APA was formed in Worchester MA.  Since then, psychology has grown at WSU.  The department was formed in the mid 1950s and has grown in size and composition since then. Today the department boasts 13 faculty members who teach and do research all aspects of the discipline.  The department is also becoming better equipped to support the demands of the modern undergraduate curriculum which promotes both teaching and research.  There are four technology-equipped classrooms, histology lab, a student computer room, a computer research lab, and interview rooms.
