Welcome to the Department of Psychology

The Department of Psychology was established in 1981; a result of the foresight of Rev. Dr Joseph. J. As a true visionary, he gauged the importance and the need for a Psychology Department in the district; and today, under the eminent guidance of Dr P. S. Anil Jose, the Department caters to the ever-increasing mental health demands. A Six- Semester Graduate as well as a Four-Semester Post-Graduate Course is being offered by the Department at present. The Department is equipped with two, state of the art fully functioning Psychological Laboratories, specifically designed to help students develop the necessary skills.

The initial batch of Post-Graduation, started in 2013, offered specialization in Educational Psychology and recently shifting focus to Clinical Psychology, with provisions for multiple specialization offerings through OBE. Being the only Psychology Department in the district, extensive Community, Extension, and Consultancy services are being offered for our home base. Within a short span of time, the Department was able to prove ‘its’ worth in creating an awareness about the Nature, the Applications and the Need for the discipline. Cognethra, the First Mental Health Fest of Kerala, is a brain child of the Department and is striving to be the unifying force among the different Psychology Departments of the State.
