The Bachelor’s Thesis is a formal report and the culmination of your independent research. The thesis is written as part of your PSYC 494 (Advanced Research in Psychology), the Psychology Honors Program, or the Capstone Program. Students writing a thesis as a PSYC 494 participant may submit their report for Psychology Departmental Distinction.
If you are not enrolled in the Psychology Honor’s Program or the Capstone Program (PSYC 492), you must indicate your Intention to Submit a Bachelor’s Thesis. This form must be submitted by the 10th day of the semester when you will graduate. For example, if you are graduating in Spring 2027, you must submit this form by February 1, 2027. To determine the 10th day of the semester you will graduate, please consult the Registrar’s Office Academic Calendars.
