Mission Statement:
The Master of Arts Degree in Psychology is
devoted to the recovery of some of the great traditions in 20th Century
psychology often lost in the shuffle of current day clinical and research-oriented
programs. Offering our students an array of courses in personality theory,
psychodiagnostics, psychotherapy and health psychology, the Master's Program
in Psychology also provides incisive courses in the history of psychology,
as well as special topics classes ranging from primate studies to projective
techniques. The distinguishing character of the program lies in its
existential-phenomenological and historical orientation drawing upon the
traditions of depth psychology, hermeneutics, humanistic psychology, and
continental thinking. Our classes are grounded in many of the seminal
works of phenomenological psychology, clinical psychology, and personality
theory, and our approach is one of hermeneutic retrieval with an aim to
carrying forward and transforming work and ideas that are part of the living
history of our discipline. Students in the program will read primary sources
such as Husserl, Heidegger, Sartre, Beauvoir, Merleau-Ponty, Levinas, Freud,
Jung, Adler, Rorschach, Horney, Boss, Allport and Rogers, to name but a
few.
