The Cummings Center is home to the National Museum of Psychology and the Institute for Human Science and Culture. Through interactive exhibits, unique artifacts, and original artwork, visitors are invited to explore our shared humanity.
The National Museum of Psychology features both permanent and rotating exhibits on psychology’s history as a profession, a science, and an agent of social change. Highlights include the home movies of Sigmund Freud, the simulated shock generator from Stanley Milgram’s obedience studies, and artifacts from the Stanford Prison Experiment. Interactive exhibits on memory, intelligence, and personality are perfect for visitors of all ages.
The Institute for Human Science and Culture is a hands-on humanities center on the corner of campus and community. It hosts the Oak Native American Gallery, a postcard library, and a variety of rotating arts and culture exhibits.
