Since its inception, the members of the Association have kept as their focus the need for Psychology in our society. Our vision is to have psychologist as an integral part of our society, improving the quality of life of its people. Industrial Psychologist in the workplace ensuring that our workers are happy, comfortable and give all they can; Health Psychologist teaching us how a healthy body could lead to a healthy mind and clinical Psychologist caring for the individual man on the street.
Our own education, however, is by no means over for as we teach others how to improve their lives through Psychology, we continue to learn and hence encourage research that will only serve to aid us to help others even more.
Psychology is not just a discipline but should be made part of one’s lifestyle. The things one learns in Psychology can help one to improve oneself. It is to this end that the Student Psychology Association continues to see educating people as a need, and use of Psychology as its vital purpose.
