Program Overview

Psychology is of fundamental relevance to our society. The discipline addresses important questions about the nature of human thought, emotion and behaviour, such as: How do we perceive, remember and process information? How do these processes change over our lifespan? How are addictions and brain chemistry related? How are psychological disorders and traumatic brain injury diagnosed and treated? How do we cope with stress in a changing world? The core goals of the Ryerson's Psychology program are to:

  • Educate students in the science of psychology and its application to real-life situations;
  • Prepare students for careers in which they will confront, elucidate, and solve problems that have psychological components;
  • Provide the foundation for students who wish to pursue post-graduate studies in a variety of areas including Psychology.
