Bachelor of Arts in Psychology in the Philippines

The Bachelor of Arts in Psychology (AB Psychology) is a four-year degree program in the Philippines that deals with the study of the way we think and behave.

By taking this course, you will learn how to conduct and interpret different tests such as those aiming at evaluating a person’s intelligence (IQ test), skills (aptitude tests), and personality (personality test); and how you can apply your findings in different settings such as the field of education, business, and public service.

It is mostly similar to Bachelor of Science in Psychology except that you don’t have to take the additional natural science electives that are required from students of the BS program. Also, contrary to BS Psychology which is typically taken in preparation for a career in medicine or research, AB Psychology is usually taken in preparation for a career in either law or business management.

Some examples of courses that you may take while enrolled in this program include:

Pscyhological Statistics
Developmental Psychology
Personality
Experimental Psychology
Social Psychology
Psychological Assessment
Abnormal Psychology
Research in Psychology
Clinical Psychology
Cognitive Psychology
Educational Psychology
Current Issues in Psychology

Physiological Psychology

Aside from taking the subjects above, you may also be required to go through an On-the-Job Training at hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and other similar healthcare facilities where you’ll have an opportunity to put what you learned in school to good use.
