Bachelor of Science in Psychology

For about two decades the Institute of Behavioral Sciences is contributing its share in serving the ailing humanity by offering consultation for patients with psychiatric illnesses and substance use-disorders, under the supervision of well-known, qualified and experienced professionals of psychiatry, psychology and occupational therapy.

The Institute is a integral part of Dow University of Health Sciences as Department of Psychiatry DIMC, DUHS. Currently, IBS plays an active role in the education of Post Graduate students in Psychiatry for FCPS, operating under the DUHS umbrella. Additionally, MBBS and FCPS/MCPS students visit IBS for their clinical rotation in Psychiatry. Moreover, students from various universities specializing in Pharmacy, Psychology, Occupational Therapy, Social Work, and Nursing come to IBS for their professional internships in their respective domains.

In a recent development, Institute of Behavioral Sciences (IBS), Dow University of Health Sciences (DUHS) has introduced a new undergraduate program known as the BS Psychology program.

In response to the dire need for mental health practitioners in Pakistan, IBS has taken the initiative to introduce a Bachelor of Science in Psychology program. With the increasing prevalence of mental health issues and the limited availability of qualified professionals in the field, it has become crucial to equip individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary to address these challenges. Through our program, we aim to produce highly competent graduates who can contribute to the mental well-being of individuals and communities in Pakistan. By bridging the gap in mental health services, we strive to create a positive impact on the overall health and quality of life of our society.
