Hi,
In BA Psychology, students learn mainly about the processing of the human mind and human behavior. They study how humans behave differently in different circumstances while dealing with different sets of people. On the basis of this, various conclusions are drawn. BSW is useful to candidates who may like to work in social welfare sectors as it helps them acquire professional skills and knowledge to help the clients to deal with their emotional and psychological problems.
Thanks!
