Join us virtually on Friday, April 9th 2021 for the Columbia Psychology Department's second annual Symposium. 

The Symposium is a space for students and faculty to share what they've learned about psychology outside the classroom in Columbia's Psychology Department. There will be a range of activities including a virtual poster session, data talks, workshops, a panel of clinical professionals, a graduate student-led Q&A, and a keynote talk by Professor Colin Leach.

 

Answers to some frequently asked questions can be found below. 

Who can attend? 

  • Undergraduate, post baccalaureate, and graduate students are invited to attend.
  • We also welcome all lab managers, post-docs, and visiting scholars in the department. 
  • Faculty are welcome and encouraged to attend, particularly the data blitz and poster sessions, as they will feature work done by research assistants in their respective labs. 

How will it work?
