Royce Conference


The Joseph R. Royce Research Conference is a peer-reviewed research conference that focuses on psychology and related topics. The goals are:

  1. To showcase psychological research by faculty, postdoctoral fellows, graduate students, and undergraduate students.
  2. To facilitate communication among the various areas within the psychology department and related departments.

The conference is a full day event held each winter term. Faculty, postdoctoral fellows, graduate, and undergraduate students present papers and posters describing their current research activities. The conference is named in honour of Dr. Joseph R. Royce, who was Head of the Department of Psychology from 1960 to 1967 and Director of the Centre for Advanced Study in Theoretical Psychology from its foundation in 1966 until 1979.
