ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The Psychology Student Association (PSA) Internship is a two-quarter commitment, from Winter 2026 to Spring 2027, during which chosen applicants will work to foster their academic and professional development. Collaborating with the Intern Liaison, as well as other PSA executive board members and interns, selected members will help execute PSA's most critical meetings, social events, and fundraisers—along with other key programs that will serve to benefit the organization and its members. Being a PSA intern will open doors to skills and experiences that will not only support personal achievement, but also contribute to success at UCI and in pursuing a psychology-related occupation after college.
