twu’s psychology program considers what it means to be human, and emphasizes how an acute understanding of mind and behaviour can be put to work to help the communities. examining the deeper motivations of human behaviour and understanding how one can impact people’s lives is part of the dynamic field of psychology.

through systematic observation and research in the psychology program, students will gain an understanding of human experience. students will explore all aspects of human behaviour and the thoughts, feelings, and motivations that underlie that behaviour, helping them to better understand people and how they can positively influence them.

using a christian worldview as the basis of interpretation, faculty members encourage students to investigate principles derived from research that apply to areas such as work, love, leisure, family, sexuality, value and meaning, spirituality, and relationships. through a variety of teaching styles, off-campus trips, unique guests, travel studies, and retreat courses, students professors equip them to explore their faith and question their world.
