Program Structure

Psychology is the systematic study of behaviour and mental processes. It asks questions like: How do we learn, think and remember? What is the relationship between thinking and behaviour? How do we perceive the world, communicate, and fall in love? How do children acquire language and knowledge of the world around them? Why do adolescents (and adults) conform to peer-group pressure? How do individuals function in work situations? What does ageing entail? What is the relationship between behaviour and the brain? How does disturbed or criminal behaviour develop? What can be done to prevent or remedy it?

Perdana College, always innovative and constantly pioneering new programs, is proud to offer the first psychology program among the private education sector in Bangladesh.

Under this program, the students will study one year in Dhaka, and then proceed to the UCSI University, Malaysia, to complete the final years and obtain a B.A. (hons.) Psychology degree. Alternately, the students can choose to do approx. 45 credits in Dhaka before transferring their credits into the B.A. (Hons) or B.A. Psychology program offered by the Algoma University, Canada.
