The Faculty of Psychology, Maranatha Christian University is the first private psychology faculty in Indonesia, which sees the need for guidance, counseling and psychotherapy in society, both in the clinical, educational, industrial, and social worlds. The emphasis on psychodiagnostic abilities of graduates is a hallmark whose advantages are in great demand by the public. Currently, there is a shift in the handling of community needs from a curative one to a promotive and preventive one, with positive psychology as a reference. Positive psychology views humans positively and has good qualities that can still be developed in family and community life. The positive psychology paradigm was developed starting from undergraduate education to postgraduate education with an emphasis on developing competency-based abilities in accordance with the demands of the development of the world of education in Indonesia.
The Faculty of Psychology at Maranatha Christian University houses three study programs of bachelor (S-1) and master (S-2) programs. Graduates from the bachelor program can continue their studies to postgraduate level at Maranatha Christian University in the Master Program in Profession Psychology, or Master Program in Science Psychology with a specialization in the family field.
