BAPCH : Bachelor of Arts(Hons) Psychology

B.A.(Hon.) Psychology comprises of fourteen Core courses. Each course is of six credits, spread over six semesters of your programme. All the core courses have either practical or tutorial worth two credits. Along with the core courses, there are four Discipline Specific Elective courses offered in the fifth and the sixth semesters. Together these core courses and the discipline specific electives offer a basic perspective on behavior and individual differences, life span psychology, behavior in social context, application of psychology in diverse fields, and conducting research in psychology. These courses will enable the learner to acquire knowledge about psychology as a subject which will further help in their post graduate education in the related area. We also offer in this programme, Generic Elective courses which are interdisciplinary in nature and these would help the learner in the study of psychology by placing the discipline in the context of wider social sciences. At present, we are specifying the generic electives that are to be opted in the first four semesters. Skill based courses are offered in the third and fourth semesters, which again are from different discipline. Ability Enhancement courses are offered in the first two semesters which will develop a practical and vocational perspective (please refer to the list of courses being offered in the programme).
