Brief Introduction to Psychology

A compact course in numbers

This NPTEL video course runs to 38 lectures and is taught by Prof. Braj Bhushan of IIT Kanpur. The title signals a broad, introductory overview of the discipline rather than a specialist deep dive.

What to expect

The course description does not list individual topics, so the lecture sequence itself is the best guide to coverage. Its length suggests a steady, long-form survey that suits learners who like to work through a full series.

Who it suits

• Beginners who want a long-form video introduction
• Learners who prefer an IIT-taught series with many lectures

Check the lecture list before committing, since the summary itself gives only the lecture count and the instructor.
