Psychology Psychology delves into what makes people tick. Psychologists study the relationship between mind and behaviour by investigating the nature of thought processes and behaviours in humans and other animals. Psychologists also study the evolutionary, social and cultural factors affecting the development of human thoughts and behaviours, focusing on topics that have a direct bearing on people's day-to-day experience. A major in Psychology will help graduates develop skills in analyzing and interpreting complex material, particularly as it relates to behaviour. They will learn theories of how people interpret the world and act in it, as well as theories of human behaviour. Psychology students will learn from those at the forefront of psychological research. The faculty members are regularly published in the top journals and make an ongoing contribution to an ever-advancing field.
