Who we are

The School of Psychology is in the College of Sciences and has a strong scientific orientation. It houses four programs: Engineering, Experimental, Industrial/Organizational, and Quantitative. All four programs involve research on human aging and an emphasis on quantitative methods.

The School of Psychology maintains excellent research and educational interactions within the College of Science; with other scientific and technological disciplines on campus, such as The Graphics, Visualization, and Usability Center (GVU), the Cognitive Science Program, and the Human-Computer Interaction Program; and with other institutions such as Zoo Atlanta, the Emory Medical School-Georgia Tech Biomedical Engineering Program, and via the Center for Aging and Cognition: Health, Education, and Training (Georgia Tech & University of Michigan), and the Center for Research Education on Aging and Technology Enhancement (Georgia Tech, Florida State, and the University of Miami).

In 2003, Psychology moved into the beautifully renovated J. S. Coon Building, a historical landmark in the center of campus
