Course Evaluation

The Department of Psychology requires student assessment of all courses taught by the Department of Psychology. These assessments provide essential feedback to faculty on their teaching by identifying both strengths and possible areas of improvement. In addition, annual student assessment of teaching forms part of the information used by the Department Tenure and Promotion Committee in evaluating the faculty member's contribution in the area of teaching.
