The Psychology program at Nanjing Normal University is a comprehensive academic discipline offered through the School of Psychology, one of China’s historically significant psychology centers with roots tracing back to the early 20th century. The undergraduate psychology major (often focused on Applied Psychology) combines foundational courses in general psychology, developmental and educational psychology, abnormal psychology, social psychology, and research methods with practical training in psychological assessment, experimental design, and data analysis, preparing students to understand human behaviour and mental processes and apply that knowledge in educational, clinical, research, or organizational settings. The program emphasizes both theoretical mastery and empirical research skills, and the school supports advanced study pathways at the graduate level in areas such as basic psychology, developmental and educational psychology, and applied psychology, with graduates equipped to pursue careers in counselling, human resources, mental health, research, or further academic study.
