Learn to understand human thoughts, feelings and behaviours as the result of an interaction between nature and nurture, biology and culture, genes and the environment. You will explore a range of theoretical ideas and research evidence from core specialist areas, including mental health, developmental psychology, social psychology, cognitive psychology, neuroscience, biological psychology and personality psychology. You will bridge disciplinary boundaries, taking theories from the behavioural and social sciences and using them to throw light on real-world, practical situations. You will learn about both qualitative and quantitative approaches, from discourse analysis and quasi-experimental questionnaire design, through to neuroimaging techniques.
When you move into your third year and undertake experimental projects you’ll enjoy access to our state-of-the-art laboratory facilities, including a fullyimmersive virtual reality suite, electroencephalography (EEG), eye-tracking and motion-tracking equipment. You’ll also have the opportunity to demonstrate all you have learned by designing and implementing an individual research project of your own. |
