Abstract

The proposed objective for this text is to investigate the teaching of psychology in higher education courses other than Psychology. The contribution of the subject of Psychology to the education of different professionals has generated many issues for discussion. By providing this discussion we believe to be contributing for the emergence of the discussion about the teaching of Psychology in several different courses, a subject that has to be discussed by the group of players involved in the teachinglearning contexts who seek, in psychological knowledge, contributions for training their professionals. The information and discussions presented here are supported by the answers provided by the teachers who teach in these courses.
