About the Program

Psychology studies human behavior and mental processes through scientific methods, covering areas such as cognition, development, social behavior, and mental health. Coursework typically includes research methods and statistics, developmental psychology, cognitive psychology, social psychology, and abnormal psychology, along with laboratory or research components that give students hands-on experience designing and analyzing studies. Students learn to critically evaluate psychological research, apply theoretical frameworks to human behavior, and, in some programs, gain introductory exposure to counseling or assessment techniques. The discipline also generally addresses research ethics given its focus on human subjects. Graduates pursue careers in human resources, market research, social services, and education, or continue into graduate study toward clinical, counseling, or research-focused psychology careers. This bachelor program is delivered in English over 4 years at Yeditepe University in İstanbul, Turkey. The program combines theoretical coursework with research training to build a scientific understanding of behavior and mental processes. Students are prepared both for direct entry into behavior-related fields and for further specialized graduate study.
