As current PhD students, we created this podcast because we know that applying to graduate programs in psychology can be bewildering. We remember asking ourselves questions like: Is a graduate degree in psychology right for me? If so, what kind of program should I choose? How do I develop competitive application materials? And is there anyone else like me in these programs? If you‘re wondering about the same things, you‘ve landed in the right place! We‘re glad you‘re here. As you explore the podcast, please keep in mind that all content applies to U.S.-based programs in particular. Please also note that unfortunately we are not able to provide individualized guidance or feedback. Special thanks to the Columbia Psychology DEI Working Group for their valuable input on this series.

Welcome to Season 2 of The Psychology PhD! As grad students in the Columbia University psychology department, we hope to provide you with some insight into graduate studies in psychology, from applying to programs to learning about day-to-day life as a PhD student. Season 2 features conversations with students in our program that provide a glimpse into their unique backgrounds and experiences prior to pursuing a PhD. In this episode, we meet Anna Vannucci, a third-year PhD student advised by Dr. Nim Tottenham.
