Psychology can be seen as an umbrella discipline overarching all other disciplines. It is the study of the human mind and the behavior that it generates, as well as how humans behave across various subjects.

Our psychology students use approaches that range from the scientific to the philosophical, from the experimental to the theoretical. Through these methods our students develop and apply problem-solving skills that will help them think analytically and communicate clearly and persuasively throughout their lives and careers.
