Experiential learning was emphasized through educational visits to institutions like rehabilitation canters, old age homes, museums, and industrial settings, providing real-world exposure to applied psychology, geriatric care, and interdisciplinary learning. The Kerala educational trip further broadened students’ understanding of psychology, healthcare, and cultural heritage.
