METU Northern Cyprus Campus Psychology Program

The undergraduate program is designed to acquaint students with a broad knowledge and basic skills in the main fields of psychology. The required courses aim to equip students with the basics of different fields of psychology, such as social, clinical, developmental, industrial/organizational, physiological, and health psychology, and methodologies employed in psychological research. In addition to the required courses, students are expected to take a minimum of 13 elective courses. Six of these courses are departmental elective courses (see the list below) and aim to provide students with in-depth knowledge in their areas of interest in psychology. Six non-departmental elective courses aim to introduce students other scientific disciplines which are closely related to psychology (e.g., sociology, philosophy, economics, etc.). By offering a broad spectrum of elective courses, the undergraduate program gives the students opportunity to specialize in different areas of psychology and to get familiar with the interdisciplinary nature of social sciences.
