Embodying the public service commitment of N.Y.U. at large and the broader mission of the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development (to advance knowledge, creativity, and innovation at the crossroads of culture, education, and human development), the Applied Psychology Department has initiated the Quality Undergraduate Education and Scholarly Training (Q.U.E.S.T.) program.

QUEST is a full-time summer program that seeks to increase opportunities for historically under-resourced students who are committed to critically exploring topics in Communities of Color, including longstanding structural inequities and policy strategies toward positive social change, before applying to graduate degree programs in applied psychology and related fields.
