Graduate Student Handbook
Graduate Student Handbook
outlines the requirements for graduate students in Psychological Sciences at Vanderbilt. Discussed are course requirements, milestones (e.g., the qualifying exam), and several additional issues related to the rights and responsibilities of graduate students. The development of an integrated program is an evolving process. Thus, this document will be periodically updated, based on changes that are approved by a vote of the Psychological Sciences faculty. It is the responsibility of the Directors of Graduate Study in the two departments to incorporate such changes into revisions of this document and to inform students and faculty about such revisions.
The Student Handbook
outlines a wide variety of Vanderbilt policies concerning students. Included is the Vanderbilt Community Creed, University Policies and Regulations, the Honor System, Student Conduct, and Alcohol and Controlled Substance policies.
A&S Department of Psychology Information and Operation Procedures
handbook describes the department's organization and administration, outlines departmental policies, and describes facilities and resources. This handbook only applies to students whose primary advisor and laboratory resides in Wilson Hall.
