My time at Christ University, Banerghatta campus, where I pursued a BSc in Psychology Honors, was an incredibly rewarding experience. Having transitioned from aspiring to a medical career to pursuing psychology, I was initially apprehensive. However, Christ University stood out as one of the few leading institutions in India offering a BSc in psychology, allowing me to maintain my science background.
The curriculum was comprehensive and forward-thinking, with the unique inclusion of a module in artificial intelligence—a rarity in psychology programs across the country. This prepared me for future opportunities, blending traditional psychological theories with modern advancements.
Beyond academics, Christ University played a pivotal role in shaping my professional journey. The faculty were supportive in providing letters of recommendation, timely transcripts, and an array of extracurricular activities that significantly boosted my CV. Additionally, I had the privilege of serving as the student representative for the social sciences division, where I honed my leadership skills and contributed to the campus community.
