Our course covers a wide range of psychological study, from individual differences, personality and mental health, to biological and social psychology.Psychologists explore behaviour using scientific methods such as observation, experiments, and statistical analysis. On the course, you might be conducting experiments, debating against fellow students on how we motivate people to make healthy eating choices, or assessing case studies.We support our students to develop their natural curiosity, creating psychology graduates equipped to explore the human experience in an ethical, empathetic, and scientific manner.
