Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and behaviour of humankind in order to provide information that would facilitate the understanding and prediction of human actions, feelings and thought process. Psychologists are involved in studying and understanding mental processes, brain functions, and how they influence behaviours. The field of psychology is referred to as “Hub Science” as it has strong connections to the medical sciences, social sciences and education.
A degree programme in Psychology is four years, after which you’re awarded Bachelor of Science (B.Sc).
