MS in Psychology

Welcome from Dr. Peretz

Welcome to Palo Alto University’s MS in Psychology program! I am very proud of our program and the students, faculty, and staff that work together to accomplish our mission of educating and training the next generation of scholars. I strongly believe that after you get to know PAU and its offerings, you will share my excitement!

Some of the parts of our program that I especially value include:

A collaborative community of faculty and staff committed to your success.
A cohort model of instruction where you will get to know your fellow students.
Individual attention through your faculty advisor.
Convenient online synchronous classes.
Guaranteed class availability.
Outstanding faculty.

As the Program Director, I am always available to help. Feel free to email me with any questions or to set up a time to talk. I hope to hear from you soon and look forward to seeing you in class!

Sincerely,

Jonathan Peretz, PsyD
