    Course details

    Why do people behave in certain ways? What is going on in everyone's mind? Why are some people happier than others? What influences our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours? Am I the same person when I'm alone or in a group?

    The DAPP course introduces students to the study of the human mind and behaviour in inpiduals and groups. Students will consider how aspects of their biology, ways of thinking, social environment, relationships and social identity combine to make us who we are. The course introduces the student to a wide range of psychological approaches and looks into areas such as learning, memory, emotions, and identity. Apart from learning the psychological theories, students will be taught the practical side by being exposed to the field of counseling and psychotherapy.

    Moreover, the course also takes the student to an extended field of psychology, positive psychology, by exploring its development as a recent paradigm shift in the field of psychology. Positive psychology emphasizes on subjective human experiences such as happiness and well-being, positive personality traits and their influence in the group and community.

    This program will give students a head start in pursuing further studies and by adding to their existing qualifications and experience by being able to apply psychological, counseling and positive psychology principles to inpidual, social and organizational matters.
