Discover Psychology Public Lecture Series

Watch the Discover Psychology CommercialScience you can use

If you think you can’t use the science you learn in the classroom, think again…

The Department of Psychology, Neuroscience & Behaviour and the McMaster Alumni Association invite you to Discover Psychology: Science You Can Use.

Unlike traditional colloquium, this special public lecture series is aimed towards students, staff, faculty, alumni, and all members of the public. The lectures feature dynamic McMaster professors discussing fascinating and practical topics related to the field of Psychology.

Where?

The talks take place on Friday afternoons in the Psychology Building (PC 155) with light refreshments available at 2:15 p.m. followed by the lecture from 2:30 to 3:20 p.m, and are free of charge. If you can’t make it in person or missed a talk you can catch up online right here. Talks are posted the following Tuesday at 12 p.m.
