| This course provides individual students with hands-on experience conducting a research project. Students are supervised directly
by a faculty member as they conduct an in-depth investigation of a specific topic within psychology. Typically, the course
involves both the practice and reporting of research. Through this experience students will develop a broader appreciation
of the relations between knowledge, theory and research while acquiring basic skills in research methodologies and modes of
inquiry. In addition, students will develop their written and oral communication skills (e.g., integration of relevant literature,
reporting of research). Course registration requires the signature of the Psychology Academic Manager. This signature is contingent
upon the student demonstrating they have obtained a faculty supervisor's signature and satisfy the course prerequisites. Please
see the Psychology department website for more information. https://www.uoguelph.ca/psychology/ |
