Registration now open for 2024 Psychology Research Day
The seventh annual Psychology Research Day will take place on Thursday 7 November 2024 as part of the week-long BPS Psychology Careers Festival.

The Psychology Research Day, delivered in collaboration with Senate House Library, is primarily aimed at psychology students and early career researchers.
The day will feature talks about research skills and careers in psychology research.
Planned talks for the day include sessions about political psychology, artificial intelligence, psychometric testing, and diverse career paths in psychological research.

The Psychology Research Day is a free event to attend, however you can upgrade your ticket to attend the full event and get access to all stages and speakers.
