Kate Petrova

Major: Psychology

Minor: Neuroscience

Key Bryn Mawr Experiences:

  • Summer Science Research and Frances Velay Fellowship for Women in Science
  • Research assistant in the psychology department

  • Head Peer Mentor

Post-graduation plans: After graduation I will be working as a research assistant on the Harvard Study of Adult Development studying the interplay between social and emotional aspects of everyday life and how it changes across the lifespan.

Being a part of the Psychology Department has been the defining experience of my time at Bryn Mawr, and I would like to extend my sincerest gratitude to each and every member of the department. It has been a true honor and a privilege to work alongside and learn from my professors and peers in the department, and it is something that filled me with joy every day over the past four years!
