Undergraduate Programs
Social Psychology is the study of human behaviour. How do people come to be who they are? How do people think about, influence and relate to one another? How do individuals experience their social realities? These are the broad questions that we strive to answer.
Students explore a wide range of themes, including relationships and sexuality, mental health and well-being, self-presentation and impression management, identity, emotions, social interaction, culture, conformity and obedience, deviance and labeling, social networking, and collective action and social movements.
