About the program
Students in the psychological foundations of education program at the University of Minnesota study the psychological processes critical to education. Our research focuses on cognitive and factors shaping and enhancing learning throughout the lifespan. Our faculty and students do not just conduct laboratory experiments—we also put our research to work: in local schools on programs to improve students' reading and science outcomes and with members of our diverse communities to help our neighbors succeed at school and work.
Students in our program join as a cohort of scholars with common schedules for coursework and degree milestones. As they are welcomed into our community, they will experience strong faculty and peer mentoring throughout their training.
Our program is committed to creating a culture of inclusion where diverse identities, backgrounds, views and perspectives are welcome and respected.
Because our campus is located in the Twin Cities our researchers have strong connections to diverse communities and are able to participate in impactful, community-engaged research.
