The Department of Psychology's History, Quantitative & Theoretical area represents one of the Canadian Psychological Association's sections and five of the American Psychological Association's divisions.
It covers those aspects of Psychology that define it as a distinct discipline since it is a common foundation in theory and methods.
The History, Quantitative & Theoretical area at SFU comprises the fundamental prerequisite courses for admission into all other areas and programs in the Department.
More importantly, however, it should be noted that the History, Quantitative & Theoretical area has its own philosophy and research programs.
In Psychology, these fundamentals consist of knowledge of the historical development of theories, methods, and ideas. They also include the theory and ideas behind the methods.
It is the History, Quantitative & Theoretical area that ensures psychologists possess well-developed historical perspectives, are able to grasp sophisticated principles from the philosophy of science, and can, in a creative fashion, bring quantitative techniques to bear on a problem.
Students may take undergraduate History, Quantitative & Theoretical courses from within several streams of concentration and may apply for graduate studies with a History, Quantitative & Theoretical specialization.

Students admitted to this graduate program have a Psychology Honours degree (prefer) or a Psychology Major with a strong research experience in psychology, and a strong background in psychology methodology and statistics.
Experience in a research lab is highly recommended. Incoming students must have a solid grounding in methods and statistics used in Psychology, as they will take advanced courses in both in their first year.
They also need a foundation in theory and a solid understanding of the literature associated with their research.
Please note that work experience does not weigh that heavily in the University's decisions. Your work experience will not prepare you for the rigours of this graduate program.
