Biography

In addition to his academic appointment as a Teaching Professor of Psychology, Kevin Bennett, PhD, is the program coordinator for the psychology degree at The Pennsylvania State University Beaver Campus and a non-resident fellow at the Centre for Urban Design and Mental Health (UD/MH) based in London. His research—psychological science at the intersection of urban design and mental health—explores what it means to belong and not belong to the places that surround us.

Bennett is a contributor to Psychology Today and his work can be seen in the Chicago Tribune, Salon, Popular Science, Business Insider and many others. He has appeared on, or been featured in national and local news, radio and TV including the New York Post, Sports Illustrated, China Global Television Network, Talk Radio London on The Unexplained with Howard Hughes, and others.
