Psychology

Chandigarh University has hosted different events for Psychology students like Tech Invent 2024, which had activities on past life regression and psychological testing. Students also took part in discussions led by child psychologist Prof. (Dr.) P.K. Malhi from PGIMER Chandigarh. Hypnotherapy sessions by Ms. Renu Thakur and workshops on behaviour analysis gave them direct practical knowledge. Big events such as the International Conference on Behavioural Sciences in 2023 also opened opportunities to learn about sustainable society and mental health issues. Such programs give psychology students exposure, confidence, and a better link between theory and practice.

Learning psychology is not only about reading, it is also about exploring real problems. Students at Chandigarh University can join research projects as part of their course. These projects give them experience in planning, studying, and writing research. Students get to study different topics, gather data, and understand human behavior in a practical way. Many students have worked on projects like “Psychological well-being of children during COVID-19 in Bhutan”, “Association of COVID-19 Fear with Depression: A Correlational Study”, “ANIMAL ASSISTED THERAPY AND MENTAL HEALTH: A BIBLIOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS”, and “Evolution of LGBTQ+ Community in India: Historical Perspective”, etc.
