——————————–Brief Intro to Psych Camp 2012—————————

Psychology Camp 2012- Operation: Power Up!

Since 2006, NUS Psychology Society has been holding our Freshman Orientation Camp annually, providing a platform for freshmen to get to know like-minded peers and seniors and familiarize themselves with NUS and FASS, gaining exposure to the discipline of Psychology at the same time. More importantly, it is a camp which aims to promote the forging of bonds which will serve as a foundation for the friendships made in the rest of the campers’ university years and even in their future careers.

Since its initiation, the hallmarks of our camps consist of the exciting Murder Investigation as well as the CORS simulation session conducted by friendly seniors, which have proven to be well-received over the years. It is also our tradition to end off the camp with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, where everyone takes home a piece of ribbon, signifying the bonds fostered during camp.

This year’s 4D3N camp embodies the theme Superheroes, hence the name  “Operation: Power Up!”. Split into groups led by enthusiastic seniors, we believe that the incoming Year One’s will benefit from the exciting and fun activities we have arranged for them.

We look forward to your support. :D

Dear NUSPsyche member,
You are invited to attend an exhibition titled “Don’t Forget To Remember”. The exhibition will feature works by 4 local artists, on capturing transient memories through tangible art.
In conjunction with this exhibition and the theme of Memory, an outreach programme happening on the 3rd of March (Saturday) has also been organized at LASALLE College of the Arts.
The programme features a talk by extremely qualified and experienced speakers who will share their experiences with Alzheimer’s Disease, followed by a 2-part Art Therapy workshop which explores how art can be therapeutic for the aged and their caregivers.
Limited seats are available to keep it small-scale and intimate. If you are keen to get tickets to this meaningful event, please secure them at the Eventbrite page It works just like Sistic and is extremely hassle-free!
Do participate if interested!
