Who are we?
The Undergraduate Psychological Society (UPS) is a student-run organization that aims to provide support for undergraduates majoring in psychology, as well as other students interested in the field. This support shall include academic related events designed to help further out members’ goals. Although UPS is primarily an academic organization, we also plan community service and social events, in order to stress the need for a well rounded college experience and to facilitate high quality connections with fellow psych concentrators, graduate students and faculty. Ultimately, UPS aspires to act as an arena for discussion and a valuable resource for its members. We also serve to ensure that the voices and opinions of psychology concentrators are heard by the department.

Why UPS is important…
The department of Psychology at the University of Michigan is the largest psychology department in the nation. Because of the size of the department it is easy for a student to go through his or her undergraduate career and never feel connected to people in the department nor develop his or her specific interests in the field of psychology. UPS strives to reconcile by providing opportunities for its members to hear about the on-goings within the department and to get to know other people within the department, many of whom can be valuable sources of information and support.
