Psychology Program

Psychology is the study of human and animal behaviour and the neural mechanisms controlling this behaviour. As a science, psychology strives to learn information about behaviour through observation and experimentation.

As a profession, psychology promotes human welfare through personal counselling and treatment of behaviour problems. Psychology is concerned with all aspects of behaviour.Ìý A solid background in general psychology is required before you can specialize in one area such as neuropsychological, clinical, cognitive or social psychology.
