Psychology Career Advancement & Mentoring Program

An undergraduate degree is an opportunity to grow as a person and create a pathway to your chosen career.  Still, you may have questions:

  • How do I take advantage of my opportunities?
  • What is next for me?
  • How do I plan for my future?

Would you like some 1-on-1 mentoring?

Please reach out to our Psych CAMP Mentors at PsychCAMP@umkc.edu.  We offer individual meetings with our Mentors; those can be scheduled in-person, by phone, or over Zoom.  We also have drop-in office hours when you can drop by our office in Cherry Hall (room 323) to talk with a Mentor.  For the Spring 2026, our drop-in office hours are:

Mondays: 10:30-12:30
Tuesdays: 10:00-12:30
Wednesdays: 10:00-1:00
Thursdays: 10:00-12:30

Interested in some group activities?

 Please join our Psych CAMP Canvas page!  To join, please email the Psych CAMP Director, Dr. Cindy McDonald, at cynthia.mcdonald@umkc.edu.  Our Canvas page contains a calendar of activities.  We host opportunities to enrich your experience as a Psychology major or minor.  We want you to make the most out of your undergraduate experience here at UMKC.  For example, we provide information and advice about applying to graduate school, creating a resume or CV, or finding an internship.  We host social events, study sessions, and career panels. 

Joining Psych CAMP is also a fun way to get to know your fellow students and the faculty in the Department of Psychology and Counseling!
