BSc Neuropsychology, taught by neurologists, neuropsychologists and neuroscientists, gives medical students a foundation of contemporary knowledge and research skills for exploring the psychobiology of the mind. The course has close links with the School of Medical Sciences with students sharing facilities and having exposure to practising clinicians throughout the course. BSc (Hons) Neuropsychology is an intercalated course aimed at medical students who wish to study the biological basis of the human mind in health and disease. This one-year course reviews the theoretical and underpinnings of neuropsychology, and provides a foundation in clinical and basic neuroscience central for understanding the biological bases of neuropsychological and psychiatric conditions.

Psychology at Bangor University was founded in 1963 and is one of the UK's oldest psychology departments. We regularly rank among the top 10 in the National Student Survey for overall student satisfaction and with over 1,100 students and 100 staff we're also one of the largest departments in the UK. Not only are we highly ranked for our teaching but we also have a global reputation for the quality of our research. In the most recent Research Excellence Framework, we ranked in the top 20 in the UK with 89% of our research considered either 'Internationally Excellent' or 'World leading'. This research feeds directly into our teaching ensuring a fresh, vibrant learning experience and a large and varied range of modules studied with academics who have an international reputation in their specialist areas.

Psychology at Bangor has a cosmopolitan feel and a global outlook that attracts staff and students from all over the world to work and study with us. A key aspect of our success is our focus on both the academic and pastoral sides of the student experience and this effort is led by academics in the teaching team who provide high levels of support to our students. All of this combines to provide you with what we believe is a uniquely supportive, exciting and rewarding environment in which to study Neuropsychology.

Careers

These courses enable medical students to gain a scientific perspective of neuropsychology which in addition to the enhanced career opportunities typically available to medical students who intercalate, provides a strong foundation for postgraduate study and clinical research positions within the NHS.
