Graduate Program


Program Overview

The Community Social Psychology faculty and students share a commitment to social justice and the empowerment of all citizens. To those ends, our programs are designed to help students understand the complex relationships between individual, family and community well-being and the wider environment in which we live and work.

Our mission is to provide students with the analytic, creative, organizational and evaluative skills needed to design, implement and assess programs that will help to make the world a better place – where all people will be more able to reach their full potential and where social organizations, public and private, will be more responsive to human needs.

"Never doubt that a small, group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."

- Margaret Mead
