BSc in Psychology (NUP)

The Bachelor of Science in Psychology Programme focuses on the study of individuals and groups, including their behaviours, thought processes, and emotions. It seeks to provide students with an understanding of the cognitive and affective processes that underlie human experience and behaviour; of the techniques by which behaviours are evaluated and modified and of the application of theoretical principles to solve behavioural problems. The general objective of the Bachelor of Science in Psychology Programme is to enhance understanding of behavior and mental processes and to examine their connections to the fields of biology and the social sciences. This general objective is translated into specific objectives that concern the understanding of: scientific methodology, the current state of psychological knowledge, and the application of both methodology and knowledge to real-world problems and events.
