Psychology Instructor, University of the Philippines
Biography
Marycon Anne just graduated from the University of the Philippines with a double degree in BA (Psychology-Management). Currently, she is a Psychology Instructor in the same university, handling subjects such as Qualitative Methods, Cognitive Psychology and Child Psychology. In her undergraduate years, she conducted studies on the life of prisoners in the facilities of Bureau of Jail Management and Penology. Her research stated above was a life-changing endeavor for the young student. Having to interact with those kinds of people made her more passionate in the field of incarceration and rehabilitation. The research is very timely and essential in fully understanding the struggles of drug addicts and for the country to stop its mandate of extrajudicial killings. If God permits, Marycon wants to pursue graduate studies in Clinical Psychology and focus on traumatic counselling and substance abuse rehabilitation.
