First Friday Psychology-Beckman Colloquium

The Psychology Department is excited to announce the launch of the First Friday Psychology-Beckman Colloquium Series for the 2025-2026 academic year, a new monthly event designed to bring together members of the Department of Psychology, Beckman Institute, and beyond for engaging, cross-area conversations.

On the first Friday of each month join us at 3:00 PM in the Beckman Auditorium for faculty-led lectures, panel discussions, and research spotlights that showcase the breadth and depth of work happening in psychological science at UIUC. These events are open to all faculty, researchers, graduate students, and undergraduates. No RSVP required — just show up and join the conversation!

The Friday Workshop

Weekly Drop-In Professional Development for Graduate Students

On Fridays when there is no First Friday Psychology-Beckman Colloquium, we invite graduate students to join The Friday Workshop in room 32 in the Psychology Building for a weekly, informal seminar series focused on professional development and interdisciplinary skills.

While the series is designed with graduate students in mind, all members of the department are welcome, including faculty and undergraduates.
