2 yearsAbout the Programme
The desire to comprehend the complexities of human conduct has always been at the forefront of knowledge seekers, and psychology, as the science of human behaviour, fills this void admirably.
Understanding human behaviour has become more complex as well as interesting in the modern day, due to a variety of reasons such as industrial, digital, social, and other forces.
In this context, prevention and correction of abnormal behavioral tendencies demand specific attention.
The programme will be a natural progression for graduates of psychology and applied psychology, as well as graduates of other scientific, physical, and social sciences.
The course will give foundational knowledge of both pure and applied psychology, with a focus on clinical and organizational psychology.
It put an emphasis on understanding and applying psychology through experiential learning and hands-on activities, apart from classroom learning.
The objective is to help the Applied Psychology student strengthen domain knowledge and to hone applied skills that are needed in the real-world workplace.
The course provides practical exposure in terms of research and field practice and the weightage is more than 21%.
Core Modules: The M.A program will be of two years duration divided into four semesters of 16 weeks each.
