Psychology is a word derived by combining the words psykhe (soul) and logos (knowledge). It is a branch of science that analyses the essence and different states of the human soul and tries to find the rules of phenomena such as emotion, enthusiasm and thinking. The Psychology Undergraduate Program aims to provide a variety of basic skills in a multidimensional perspective. The program aims to provide basic knowledge in various subfields of psychology such as Social, Developmental, Industrial-Organisational, Experimental, etc. and to provide students with scientific thinking and research skills. Graduates equipped with these knowledge and skills can do their postgraduate education in a sub-field of psychology that they are interested in or start their business life.
