The Department of Psychology offers a conducive learning environment with fully air-conditioned, multimedia-supported lecture halls/classrooms and faculty offices. The wider campus supports student well-being with a vast stadium for sports, a fully operational hospital, a fitness gym, and separate hostel accommodations for male and female students. Large auditoriums serve as venues for seminars, workshops, and extracurricular activities, while both the central and departmental libraries offer abundant academic resources. The department also offers counseling and psychotherapy for those students who are in need. Furthermore, for practical learning, there is a dedicated psychology lab available for psychology students.
The Psychology Lab in the Department of Psychology is a core facility designed to provide students with practical, hands-on experience in psychological testing, assessment, and experimental research. The lab is equipped with standardized instruments and tools used in measuring cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and personality variables. Students are trained to administer, score, and interpret a variety of psychological tests, including intelligence, aptitude, and personality assessments, under faculty supervision. The laboratory environment supports the development of essential research skills such as data collection, observation, analysis, and report writing. It also serves as a space for conducting small-scale experiments and demonstrations that reinforce theoretical knowledge through experiential learning. This facility plays a vital role in bridging the gap between psychological theory and practice, preparing students for future roles in clinical, educational, and organizational settings.
The Department of Psychology is attached to the Khalida Rashid Institute of Mental Health, within Gulab Devi Teaching Hospital, to provide students with structured clinical training and supervised field experience. The institute has a well-established psychiatric facility comprising a 30-bed inpatient unit, fully equipped counseling and psychotherapy rooms, diagnostic and assessment units, and consultation spaces for clinical supervision and interdisciplinary collaboration. Through this, students engage in a range of professional activities including psychological evaluations, therapeutic interventions, case presentations, and clinical training. This practical exposure is instrumental in cultivating core clinical competencies, enhancing diagnostic acumen, and promoting ethical and culturally sensitive mental health practice.
