Maintain the quality of training.

One of the Faculty's key political tasks is undergraduate and postgraduate training. The Party branch has effectively directed efforts to continuously improve the quality of training for regular and high-quality undergraduate students, as well as the quality of master's and doctoral training; ensuring the quality of curricula and learning materials for all programs.

The Faculty's outstanding achievements in training activities include: maintaining the scale of undergraduate enrollment; diversifying postgraduate enrollment sources; developing and successfully operating a master's program in Clinical Psychology with an applied orientation; enrolling students in second degree programs for those who need it; and completing the external evaluation of the Bachelor's program in Psychology according to AUN standards.
During the 2017-2020 term, alongside the achievements, the lessons learned by the Psychology Department Party Branch were the need to always uphold the principles of democratic centralism, internal unity and cohesion; to promote a spirit of continuous learning and professional development among Party members and lecturers to improve the quality of teaching and research; and to strive to successfully complete the tasks assigned by the University.
