| Program Description |
Institute of Behavioural Sciences offers a two-year full-time M. Sc. Program in Clinical Psychology.
Keeping pace with the disciplinary advances the program would address knowledge about
psychological functioning at individual and social levels in all-encompassing manner. With the goal
of acquiring specialized knowledge, the program would allow students to nurture their academic
interest in clinical psychology, along with personal growth and awareness.
The spirit of interdisciplinary growth is kept in view while conceptualizing a three-tier system- A)
CORE COURSES in the first three PG semesters (courses, which can be considered to be fundamental
in giving PG students a larger perspective of Psychology as a social science discipline, irrespective of
specialization); B) SPECIALIZATION COURSES (specific theory courses within the subject of Clinical
Psychology); and C) ELECTIVE COURSES (a wide variety, across all disciplinary specializations,
primarily conceptualized by individual faculties (based on their own interest/expertise), offered from
time to time and chosen by students according to their preference. The program would strive to
prepare competent professional psychologists who would excel in knowledge, orientation, and
practice in psychology, with high ethical standards and social relevance.
