The Pickering Centre is an innovative, interdisciplinary institution, with 11 faculty members in Psychology and Cognitive Science. We strive to promote an inclusive and collaborative atmosphere while providing students with a variety of hands-on research and learning opportunities. Our students gain expertise by taking an active role in research projects, participating in exclusive workshops and events, and attending lectures in the Invited Speaker Series.
Graduate students supervised by a Pickering Centre faculty member are nominated by their supervisor to join the Pickering Centre based on compatible research interests. There is no separate application procedure. If you are not sure whether you are a member of our centre, please reach out to your supervisor.
