Universities, colleges and
educational institutions around the world are starting to recognize
the role that handwriting analysis can play in the assessment of
personality.
In its early years, psychology
battled to achieve academic acceptance. Both Freud and Jung fought
hard to win acceptance for psychoanalysis.
Similarly, handwriting
analysis has had an uphill battle to win recognition from the formal
institutions of learning. Academic acceptance has been slow but there
are encouraging signs now from many parts of the world.
Today, Universities and
Colleges that offer courses in graphology may be comparatively small
in number but they do exist and more and more are coming forward to
offer their programs.
In Italy, The Ministry of
Education has recognized degree courses in Graphology at two
universities.
The University of Urbino is
one such university. For some years now it has been offering degree
courses in Graphology and produces highly competent graphologists with
academic and scientific backgrounds.
A Master's Degree in
Graphology
was offered by Urbino University in 2003.
A recognized degree in
graphology is also taught at Lumsa University in Rome.
In Argentina, the Emerson
University College of Buenos Aires received official recognition in
1997 for its degree in graphology.
Other universities that offer
courses at various levels are:
Glasgow University in the
United Kingdom and the Universities of Heidelberg, Cologne, Munich,
Fribourg, Hamburg, Bielefeld and Berlin in Germany,
In Spain, there are several
universities that teach graphology. They are; The University of
Valencia, The University of Cordoba, The University of Barcelona as
well as the Universidad Complutense de Madrid and the Universidad
Pontificia de Salamanca.
