Common questions
The Institute of Psychology, Health and Society is GIHD's Islamabad unit for psychology and mental health teaching and research. It sits on the DHA campus. It is not currently advertising a Generic BSN or a standalone BSc Psychology degree. Taught routes on this site are the DFM-embedded PG Certificate and EASE Training & Certification, plus connected trials such as IDEA-IMPACT and GLOW-CAT.
GIHD has not published an open BSc or MSc Psychology intake on this page. Research fellowships and planned MPH&R modules are described as under development. Register interest via the enquiry form rather than assuming a degree seat exists. For LHV and CMW diplomas, use IPHN&M at Mandra, not IPHS.
Use Enquire about IPHS on this page, or open the PG Certificate or EASE programme pages if those are the courses you want. Phone +92 333 0590373 or email [email protected].
