Becoming a CPI Peer Tutor

Serving as a CPI Peer Tutor is a unique opportunity for a select few Psychology students. Associates must have a strong foundation in the study of psychology as a science. Typically, this means demonstrated knowledge in Statistics, Research Methods, and/or breadth requirements.

Peer tutors are expected to be present in the Center for 3-6 hours per week, attend weekly meetings overseen by the graduate assistant and faculty director, and complete small assignments according to their committee.

Independent study credits are available as compensation.
