you might find a course comewhere, but to be honest, it is not considered an actual educational, legitimate subject. I think it should be, but sadly, a lot of schools and universities think otherwise…
There are a couple, but for the most part they’ll just be debunking that. If it’s a science course, that’s all science can do for you there – show you how it doesn’t work. Maybe you’d find what you want in mythology or religion courses, but not in a psychology department.
It’s not considered a legitimate field of study because they’ve never found any evidence of these things – hence there’s nothing to study. The plural of anecdotes is not data. If someone comes up with some proof, you’ll find scientists studying it at all universities – like biology, or physics. But not until then.
There are some colleges in the US that offer a minor in parapsychology, and some other colleges offer just a course in parapsychology. The links listed below will tell which US Universities offer what. Now, most of the colleges are in the UK, Holland, and Austria.
