Employment and Graduate Studies

NYU Abu Dhabi students who major in Psychology graduate with realistic ideas about how to implement their psychological knowledge, skills, and values in occupational pursuits in a variety of settings. The NYUAD Psychology Program provides a solid preparation for graduate programs in basic and applied psychology, other psychology-related fields, and graduate programs in business, education, health, and law.

Learning the behavioral side of economic theory helped me understand the crucial linkages between business processes and humans.
