Aim

Our mission is to create a dynamic, interactive, and creative framework that builds on curiosity about human nature and willingness to turn this curiosity into research and practice. Within this framework, we aim to lead our students to gain an understanding regarding the basics of science and transfer this manner to other spheres of their lives, encourage them to conduct their own independent studies, help them to internalize ethical standards, and have them monitor their professional functioning to find ways of improving their competence.
