Political Psychology Minor

The PhD minor serves as a supporting program for graduate students at the University of Minnesota. The graduate minor has a structured curriculum that provides a foundation in basic areas in political psychology: social attitudes and cognition, judgment and decision-making, group relations, personality and leadership, mass communication, public opinion, political behavior, and political socialization.

In addition to providing students with a background in political psychology, the program trains them in theory and methods useful to this field. This program is also intended to facilitate interactions among graduate students and faculty involved in research in political psychology.
