Engaged Faculty

Engaged and community-minded, Muhlenberg’s psychology faculty hail from a diverse range of expertise, in both research and clinical settings. Our award-winning instructors are committed to teaching excellence, providing students with foundational knowledge as well as understanding of the latest discoveries in an ever-changing field.

Yet some of the most meaningful learning takes place during one-on-one interactions between faculty and students. These mentorships guide students to challenge themselves academically while also growing into thoughtful members of their communities.
