You will be asked to rank the top 3 research projects that you would like to work on as an SROP Student when you complete the student application. Have fun searching through the possible projects by browsing projects by title or clicking on keywords below.

The core component of the SROP is an 8-week research project under the supervision of a University of Toronto faculty member who researches Psychology, Management, or Neuroscience. All SROP Faculty submitted a short description of the SROP research project and a statement of why they wanted to be involved in the SROP. Those descriptions are listed below. Please note the SROP will be operated remotely in Summer 2021. There will be no onsite research projects.
