What it is	Psychology is the study of how people think, feel, and behave — from memory and learning to relationships and mental health. A BA focuses on theory and research methods rather than clinical training, so you'll read studies, run experiments, and write essays more than you would in applied health programs. It suits students curious about human nature who want a broad foundation before deciding whether to specialize later in counselling, research, business, or other fields.	This program combines education and psychology to study how older adults learn and adapt to technology. You'll examine aging, cognition, and teaching methods designed for senior learners in a digital world. It suits students interested in gerontology, educational design, or supporting older people's digital literacy.	Educational psychology combines the study of how people learn with the science of human behaviour and thinking. You'll examine theories about memory, motivation, and development, then apply them to real classroom and learning situations. This program suits students interested in understanding why people struggle or succeed in school, and who might pursue teaching, curriculum design, counselling, or educational research.
