Contacts and Resources


Below you'll find information about contacting some of the people and university departments most closely connected to the undergraduate psychology program at Brock.

Academic Advising with Kirsti van Dorsser or Vaisnavi Sugumar

Kirsti and Vaisnavi can answer your questions about courses, registration, and academic requirements. You can book academic advising appointments with Kirsti online through the student portal (ensure you are logged in, look for the tab ‘Appointments’ and follow the links to Psychology). They can be reached by email at kvandorsser@brocku.ca and vsugumar@brocku.ca.

Vaisnavi and Kirsti will also be able to point you in the right direction if you have questions about other resources available to Brock students (e.g., workshops at the Student Development Centre), general university policies (e.g., fees) or other departments (e.g., finding the advisor in Sociology). As Psychology graduates, Kirsti and Vaisnavi can really relate to what you’re going through as you complete your degree at Brock -- please don’t hesitate to ask them anything.

Tammy Stewart

Tammy Stewart manages the first year Introductory Psychology course (PSYC 1F90) and Roadmaps to Careers in Psychology (PSYC 2P01). If you have any questions relating to those courses, you can reach Tammy by email at tstewart2@brocku.ca. 

Brock University Psychological Society

Another great way to become connected, make friends and find information about Brock is to join the Psychological Society. The Brock University Psychological Society is a student-run organization that organizes and sponsors events or functions designed to supplement members' understanding and enjoyment of the field of psychology. You will find more information about the PSYC Society on the PSYC department website, here.

TIP: Emailing Staff & Faculty
Always use your Brock email account when you are trying to reach faculty and staff at Brock. It is university policy not to respond to student requests from other accounts. Don’t forget that this is a professional environment and, as such, you should use full sentences with appropriate grammar in your emails (no text messaging short cuts)! Be sure to include your full name and student number as well -- there is little we can do to help you without that information.
