In this study, the criteria used as selectors to include the different elements of a course of the curriculum of a psychologist training are analyzed. Since psychology is considered as a part of the set of scientific disciplines, it is the context of science that will determine the teaching – learning activities which should be carried out to guarantee learning. Science is a social institution, with conventional structure and architecture, regulated basically by epistemological principlesthat determine its nature. Consequently, scientific training courses are structured based on these criteria, which give sense and meaning to the different tasks of those who are engaged in knowledge production.
