    Yes indeed, LPU offers Master's in Psychology. This degree can take the form of either a Master of Arts (MA) or Master of Science (M.Sc). An M.Sc degree is likely to be more focused on research and the sciences, while an MA may be more focused on the arts and humanities aspects of psychology. I know one such University in Northern India I. e. Lovely Professional University that offers a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Psychology.
