Dean's Message

Welcome to the Faculty of Psychology and Social Work!


Bismillahirrohmanirrohim. Assalamualaikum and Salam Sejahtera.

Welcome to the Faculty of Psychology and Social Work
It is with great pleasure that I extend a warm welcome to all students, researchers, and visitors to the Faculty of Psychology and Social Work. Our faculty is committed to academic excellence, research, and community service, fostering a deeper understanding of human behaviour, mental well-being, and social development in alignment with the principles of Malaysia Madani and the vision of Sabah Maju Jaya.
We take pride in offering three main programs: Psychology, Counselling, and Social Work. These disciplines play a crucial role in shaping professionals who are equipped with both theoretical knowledge and practical skills, enabling them to contribute meaningfully to society. Guided by the values of Compassion, Integrity, and Social Responsibility, we strive to nurture graduates who are critical thinkers, ethical practitioners, and compassionate leaders, ready to serve diverse communities and drive positive change.
Our faculty embraces the holistic and inclusive philosophy of Masyarakat Madani, emphasizing community empowerment, mutual respect, and sustainable development. Through innovative teaching, experiential learning, research initiatives, and community engagement, we prepare our students to be agents of transformation, addressing societal challenges and enhancing the well-being of individuals, families, and communities. As part of our commitment to Sabah Maju Jaya, we actively collaborate with local and international partners to promote social welfare, mental health awareness, and capacity-building efforts that align with the state’s aspiration for sustainable progress.
I invite you to explore our faculty, discover our academic offerings, and join us in our mission to build a compassionate, resilient, and progressive society. Whether you are a prospective student, researcher, or collaborator, we look forward to working together in advancing knowledge and practice in psychology, counselling, and social work for the betterment of our community and the nation.Welcome to the Faculty of Psychology and Social Work
