Graduate Applicants



I have not yet decided as to whether I will accept a new doctoral student for the coming year. However, a truly exceptional developing scholar may be hard to resist. If you are interested in studying with me, please state so explicitly in the personal statement of your graduate application. In addition, I recommend that you articulate how you (and your scholarly interests) are an especially sensible match with my interests and research. Please feel free to email me in advance in order to express your interest (and include your curriculum vitae/academic resume). Three groups of applicants are of particular interest: (a) applicants who have grounding in psychology, law, public policy studies, and philosophy; (b) applicants who have a law degree and are studied in jurisprudence and criminal law theory; and (c) applicants who have a Master's degree in clinical, developmental, cognitive, social, or quantitative psychology.

Further information on applying to the graduate program is available here.
