The Department aims to provide adequate research facilities to support faculty and graduate student research. The Department supports a small-animal colony for biopsychology research, and there are two permanent state-of-the-art psychophysiology laboratories: The Psychophysiology Research Laboratory and The Sleep Research Laboratory. Clinic facilities and local agencies may, at times, be used as research sites, and more general research needs may be accommodated in multi-use sites located in the departmental suite.
Students have access to some of the major statistical software packages (e.g., SPSS) in computer labs (IBM-compatible and Macintosh compatible) located throughout campus. Computers are linked to the Internet, and the Office of Information Technology (iTech) provides accounts for the entire The University of Southern Mississippi community, including graduate students. Students have access to Internet services and personal e-Mail accounts. Wireless access to the University server is available to students for a small charge. Additional information regarding computing services may be found at the iTech website (www.usm.edu/itech). Free email accounts are offered to each student.
