Course Overview

On this British Psychological Society-accredited course you will learn to understand how nature and nurture, biology and culture, and genes and the environment determine human thoughts, feelings and behaviours. You will explore a range of theoretical ideas and research evidence, learning to critically evaluate the latest psychological theories and develop ideas of your own. 

Your course will bridge disciplinary boundaries, taking theories from the behavioural and social sciences and using them to shed 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. 

In your third year, you will enjoy access to our state-of-the-art laboratory facilities, including a fully-immersive virtual reality suite, electroencephalography (EEG), eye-tracking and motion-tracking equipment. You will also have the opportunity to demonstrate all you have learned by implementing an individual research project of your own. 

You will be able to choose from a range of psychology modules according to your interests, be they broad or specific. You will also have the chance to experience topics you may not have come across before. If you discover a new passion or interest during your first year, you will have the option to change to a different Psychology pathway, ensuring you are on the right degree for you.
