Psychology

A student sits in front of a computer and turns to smile towards the camera. She is wearing a head cap that is connected to electrodes to monitor brain activity.
Discover the thought processes, emotions and behaviour of the human brain. Use specialist labs that include virtual reality, MRI and eye-tracking facilities as you work towards a career in psychology.

Explore the human mind from a wide range of perspectives, from memory and addiction to perception and language. Optional modules allow you to pair your studies with other disciplines, while a placement abroad will help you explore your chosen specialism in a new culture. On our undergraduate and postgraduate taught courses - accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS) - supervisors will support you to develop your own project. Our master's and research degrees will give you the chance to take important next steps in your career.
