hello,

Being a psychology student myself, this is a question I search about alot of times.

Indian Universities are a good option for such a great course but it always helps to know the specialization of psychology masters you would choose because the eligibility criteria of different universities for different specializations is different.

The top indian universities for masters in psychology:


NIMHANS- National Institute of Mental Health And Neurosciences is one of the most prestigious universities.

Tiss : Tata Institute of Social Sciences

Christ University, Bangalore

Lovely Professional University

Chandigarh University

SRM Institute of Science and Technology

Lady Shri Ram College for Women

St. Xaviers College

Fergusson College

Now being very honest, if you can afford, doing psychology from abroad gives you better benefits because there are more job opportunities outside India. Despite coming so far in life, Mental Health is still not taken seriously in India. If you are ready to stay here and change that mentality, you are most welcome. But if you want to go for a secure job placement, or a successfull private practice, studying abroad, if you can afford, is the better option. Students do get placements here too but its rare to get placed in hospitals or institutions. Mostly you get placed in colleges as professors.


A list of Top Universities abroad is:


Harvard University

Stanford University

University of cambridge

University of oxford

University of California, Berkeley (UCB)

University of California, LA (UCLA)

Yale University.


These are the most prestigious universities with very low acceptance rate from 4-7% to 10%. So they require heavy hardwork and a great application.

But there are many more universities that you can opt for :


University of British Columbia

Mcgill university

University of Toronto

University Of Waterloo

are the Most high ranked Universities of canada.


In the end, the decision depends on you and your personal research.

Please comment if you want mon help !


Hope this helped. good luck for your future!
