How the PIE Fund supports our students
Driven by our faculty’s deep commitment to diversity and inclusion, the PIE Fund empowers psychology students from historically marginalized and equity-deserving communities by providing undergraduate and graduate psychology students with paid research positions in our labs. The funds raised will provide four graduate students with paid research positions, five undergraduate students with paid research positions, and ten undergraduate students with tuition money to cover a lab-based research course through PSYC 240.
Your generosity helps us create a more equitable, diverse and inclusive psychology department community for all.
