The MA in Psychology program at The Chinese University of Hong Kong offers a conversion program for graduates without a psychology background, preparing them for further studies and careers in psychology.
CUHK's MA in Psychology program is designed to provide a solid foundation in psychology for students who did not major in psychology. It offers a flexible and comprehensive curriculum to support future professional and research pursuits. Promoting a distinctive Chinese voice is a major theme of the Department's long-term strategy. We have been instrumental in the development of several Asian journals. We have also edited and authored internationally respected texts on Chinese psychology and cultural influences in psychological processes. We are drawing on our experiences and resources to help develop psychological sciences in China. In short, our Department is a key player in the expansion of psychology beyond its Western origins.
The UCLA Department of Psychology is one of the top departments in the world, offering innovative research and education in various areas including cognitive, clinical, social, and behavioral neuroscience.
In 1921-2, in keeping with a growing trend across the nation, Berkeley's Department of Psychology was established as a separate unit, emerging from the Department of Philosophy. For nearly a century, the department has been a national and international leader in psychological research and the superior educational programs that we have provided to undergraduates and doctoral students.
The Department of Cognitive, Linguistic, and Psychological Sciences (CLPS) was created in 2010 by joining the departments of Psychology (established in 1892) and Cognitive & Linguistic Sciences (formed in 1986). State-of-the-art research in mind, brain, behavior and language requires spanning multiple levels of analysis and using a range of approaches and methodologies, and the integration of these two closely related departments has created an environment where this intellectual synthesis can flourish. The creation of CLPS reflects Brown's philosophy to build bridges between disciplines and to encourage interdisciplinary studies.
