Summary

All Psychology majors at Northeastern are automatically members of the Psychology Club. You are invited to be as active and involved as you wish. We are always looking for interested, proactive people to help promote our activities.

The PsychClub is a way for you to directly influence your academic life during your undergraduate career. You will meet other students who have interests similar to yours, network, and get to know your colleagues for both now and the future.

You will learn to navigate within the department, get advice about administration, and meet important people. You will get information about careers in psychology, applying to graduate school, psychology coops, and much more. Interesting and fun extracurricular activities along with a yearly road trip to the Eastern Psychological Association meeting are also important benefits to you. The PsychClub is a great way to take advantage of the opportunities available to you in our Department, the discipline of Psychology, Northeastern University, and the City of Boston.

The PsychClub meets at least five times each semester, and lunch is provided at most meetings. All Psychology majors should receive regular e-mails about activities (If you do not, please contact a member of the club or Prof. John Coley, the club advisor). You may also check the bulletin boards outside the Psych Office and in the lounge or ask in the Psychology Office.
