RBC Future Launch

Overall Info: Welcome to The University of Winnipeg's Applied Psychology Program, where experiential learning meets real-world challenges. Our program aims to bridge the gap between academia and industry by providing students with hands-on opportunities to apply their psychological knowledge and skills to real-world projects. As the professor facilitating this experience, I invite you to collaborate with us and empower your business through meaningful partnerships. Steps for Matching: Step 1: Match Request Submission: Submit your project for consideration, and we'll discuss its suitability via a video call. Step 2: Pre-Approval: If both parties agree, we'll confirm the match on the Riipen platform, though note that this is only pre-approval at this stage. Step 3: Students Choosing: Your project will be available for students to select, allowing them to choose the projects they're most passionate about. Step 4: Collaboration Starts: All communication will be conducted on the Riipen platform, ensuring seamless interaction among educators, employers, and learners. Ideal Partner: We seek partners who offer volunteer placement activities from community, government, or private organizations. Whether it's research projects or clinical/counseling settings, we welcome partners committed to providing supervised learning opportunities that align with our program's objectives.

Does your organization have a psychology research or clinical counselling area in which you need the support of psychology students? Bring on our students from the University of Winnipeg's Psychology Department to be your virtual interns! Our students have specialized in: physiological psychology, perception, learning, cognition, developmental psychology, personality, social psychology, and abnormal psychology. Students in this program have emerged with a sound understanding of the richness and complexity of human beings, with a broad range of competencies (e.g., spoken and written communication skills, critical thinking, quantitative abilities), and with an appreciation of how people can be understood scientifically. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, these placements may largely occur virtually.
