What Schools Offer a Degree in Parapsychology? thumbnail
Paranormal study requires use of the scientific method and an open mind.
Only a limited number of accredited schools offer degrees in parapsychology. Additionally, there are just a handful of research jobs available in the field. The majority of students work to obtain a postgraduate degree in psychology, and then do research that specializes in parapsychology. At present, there are no accredited parapsychology degrees available in the United States; however, three American universities do offer paranormal studies, as do several accredited universities in other parts of the world. Be sure to avoid "degree mills": organizations that offer academic degrees often for a fee alone, without requiring any course of study.

  1. Center for Consciousness Studies

    • The University of Arizona's Center for Consciousness Studies offers workshops, conferences and online courses.

    The Rhine Research Center

    • The Rhine Research Center, Durham, North Carolina, was formerly associated with Duke University, and offers independent study, discussion, remote-viewing and psychic experiences group forums.

    International Consciousness Research Labs (ICRL)

    Coventry University
