We have a great Psychology Department that includes amazing professors as well as undergraduate research. Check out their website at http://www.psych.umass.edu/.

As far as your admissions question, it's a great one that many people may want to know the answer to:UMass Amherst offers an Early Action Program as opposed to Early Decision Program offered by some schools. Early Action is an early notification of an admissions decision. The decisions will begin mailing in mid-December and continue to the end of the month. The decisions that are mailed include a variety of outcomes - one of which may be acceptance - so if you have very strong grades and exceed all of the criteria in the application, you may hear good news by mail in December. I know it's hard to wait, but that is just part of the College Admissions process.

Good luck and let us know if you have any further questions. Best regards, Lisa... Devamı

UMass Amherst In an amazing research breakthrough, Prof. Neil Forbes, chemical engineering, has developed a delivery and trigger system to place a cancer-fighting protein directly into solid tumors and to activate it on cue. Experiments show the 30-day survival time of mice with mammary tumors improved from 0 to 100 percent. GO UMass!

Research reported in a recent British Journal of Cancer confirm that UMass Amherst Neil Forbes' delivery and trigger system has for the first time successfully placed TRAIL, a cancer-fighting protein, directly into solid tumors and on cue, turned it on.

Hi, there are summer classes available, but most students choose to go back home. I will check into living opportunities, but I think many of the the residence halls close over the summer so most students who are here, live off campus. Still Amherst is most beautiful during the summer and a lot of people stay and do research and work. What else can we help you with? Best, Lisa

UMass Amherst TIME magazine names Geobacter, a microbe discovered by Prof. Derek Lovley and his research team at UMass Amherst, one of the 50 Best Inventions of 2009. This microbe generates electricity and some day soon, Geobacter will be used in fuel cells to create clean electricity. GO Green and GO UMass!

Bacteria have always gotten a bad rap. But we should be thankful for one especially talented microbe, Geobacter, which has tiny hairlike extensions called pili that it uses to generate electricity...

Rob Causey I've just sent out my application to Umass Amherst today. I'd like to get some student opinions, if there are no objections?

Hi, Rob. The best way to get student opinions is to come visit campus. You will meet student tour guides, and you can also go to the dining commons and talk to all kinds of undergrads. We also have a class group for UMass Amherst 2014 on Facebook that you can join and start discussions with others who have applied. Our students really like it ... Devamıhere and find that their studies as well as the social scene are the best around; and Amherst was voted the number one college town in the U.S. so it's a very good choice. Hope that helps and feel free to ask anything else. Hope you come here and LOL, Lisa

Hi, I was not sure if you are living in the U.S. or in Columbia from your initial note. if you are coming to the U.S. from another country, there are some additional steps to the application process that can be addressed by the International Programs Office. If you already reside in the U.S. then you just need to apply through the graduate school. Sorry for any confusion. Have a great weekend.

Adam Khan Hey Umass, I wanted to know what is the Electrical Engineering department like? Is the course load demanding? If so, is it easy to find tutors or get help? Thanks

Engineering at UMass has consistently placed in the upper echelon of U.S. News & World Report's "best of" rankings. More specifically, the Electrical & Computer Engineering Department is dedicated to providing a high-quality, affordable educational experience that fosters critical thinking and spirit of innovation, and to creating new knowledge in ... Devamıstrategic areas through research and scholarship. Our faculty are the best in their fields and our students are exceptional in their abilities.

UMass Amherst Truth be told “people meeting for the first time will lie to each other at a rate two or three times for every 10 minutes of conversation” according to renowned UMass Prof. Robert S. Feldman who has examined lying and everyday deception for over 25 years. Can you tell when someone’s lying to you?
