Program Outcomes | Level of Contribution | |
1) | To develop an interest in the human mind and behavior, to be able to evaluate theories using empirical findings, to understand that psychology is an evidence-based science by acquiring critical thinking skills. | |
2) | To gain a biopsychosocial perspective on human behavior. To understand the biological, psychological, and social variables of behavior. | |
3) | To learn the basic concepts in psychology and the theoretical and practical approaches used to study them (e.g. basic observation and interview techniques). | |
4) | To acquire the methods and skills to access and write information using English as the dominant language in the psychological literature, to recognize and apply scientific research and data evaluation techniques (e.g. correlational, experimental, cross-sectional and longitudinal studies, case studies). | |
5) | To be against discrimination and prejudice; to have ethical concerns while working in research and practice areas. | |
6) | To recognize the main subfields of psychology (experimental, developmental, clinical, cognitive, social and industrial/organizational psychology) and their related fields of study and specialization. | |
7) | To acquire the skills necessary for analyzing, interpreting and presenting the findings as well as problem posing, hypothesizing and data collection, which are the basic elements of scientific studies. | |
8) | To gain the basic knowledge and skills necessary for psychological assessment and evaluation. | |
9) | To acquire basic knowledge of other disciplines (medicine, genetics, biology, economics, sociology, political science, communication, philosophy, anthropology, literature, law, art, etc.) that will contribute to psychology and to use this knowledge in the understanding and interpretation of psychological processes. | |
10) | To develop sensitivity towards social problems; to take responsibility in activities that benefit the field of psychology and society. | |
