Undergraduate Student Members

The Social Action Research Team is now at the University of Michigan!

Interested undergraduate and graduate students from throughout the University of Michigan but especially in Women’s and Gender Studies and Psychology should reach out to directly to Dr. Grzanka to learn of any opportunities to join the team.

Please note that unlike many psychology labs, SART runs like a team and is a tight-knit group of researchers. Because of the amount of mentoring students receive, the team tends to be much smaller than many other labs in clinical, developmental, and social psychology, for example. Learn about the amazing achievements of former SART members on the Alumni page.
