We welcome students from all disciplines and encourages social interaction among peers while promoting research, internships, networking, peer advising, and community service all within a socially yet academically stimulating environment.

Undergraduate Gerontology & Alzheimer's Disease Awareness

The UGADA Association (Undergraduate Gerontology & Alzheimer's Disease Awareness) helps raise the awareness of the elderly in our society as well as of Alzheimer's disease - its pathology, causes, effects, and treatments. The mission of this organization is to educate fellow students about issues such as healthcare, policy, and lifestyle that the elderly struggle with on a daily basis and to encourage students in helping solve problematic issues in the near future.

Undergraduate Psychology Journal
The Undergraduate Psychology Journal (UPJ) is an on-line refereed journal published by the undergraduate students of UCLA's chapter of Psi Chi. The journal is particularly interested in publishing new departures and cross-disciplinary psychological research.
