Typically, an Undergraduate Programme in Psychology in abroad is 3-4 years long and helps you develop a strong base in Psychology as a discipline. On the other hand, a Master’s Programme in Psychology lasts 2-3 years and helps you get specialisation in the subject. Some of the Master’s courses in Psychology are research-based. A PhD in Psychology is a 3-year research-based degree that requires its applicants to have a basic knowledge of psychology.

In the case of an undergraduate degree, the eligibility criteria differ from course to course. For instance, BA in psychology requires a base in arts and humanities, while B.Sc in psychology requires the applicant to have studied science subjects (Biology, Organic Chemistry, and Mathematics).
