Psi Chi

Psi Chi Logo

Psi Chi is the International Honor Society in Psychology, founded in 1929 for the purposes of “encouraging, stimulating, and maintaining excellence in scholarship, and advancing the science of psychology.” With over 1,050 chapters, Psi Chi is one of the largest honor societies in the United States and is an affiliate of both the American Psychological Association (APA) and the Association for Psychological Science (APS).

 

The UTOledo Chapter

The University of Toledo Psi Chi Chapter provides psychology majors and minors with a community of like-minded individuals and an opportunity to grow as a student and future professional in the field of psychology. Our goal is to prepare our members for success post-graduation. To do so, we provide information about topics such as career options in psychology, the graduate school application process, and how you can stand out as a stellar applicant!

Our meetings range from social events that help you connect with fellow psychology students over informational presentation on important topics to workshops in which you will get to work closely with our executive board members to perfect your application materials or learn more about psychological research.
