Psychosocial studies challenges traditional separations in sociology and psychology between the 'psychological' and 'social,' arguing these inner and outer dimensions are fundamentally interconnected both in theory and practice.
Our MA Psychosocial Studies examines interdisciplinary perspectives on how our shared, vulnerable histories intertwine with our private emotional experiences and personal development.
This program welcomes graduates from diverse academic backgrounds seeking to deeply understand how individual lives intersect with broader social and political structures.
