Psychology Association
Our Mission
The Psychology Association at Texas State University is an undergraduate academic group for anyone looking to get involved with the realm of psychology. Our mission is to inform individuals about careers and graduate study in the field of psychology, to provide opportunities for our members to strengthen their resumes with research and volunteer activities, and to establish a casual atmosphere that will foster friendships and support among our members.
