COURSE OVERVIEW
Psychology can explain so much about our lives, from why we fall in love and need sleep to how others influence us. This course – taught by an academic team actively involved in leading-edge research – covers all the major areas of psychology, including cognitive, biological, social and developmental psychology, as well as individual differences and how psychology applies to everyday life. It also offers you the opportunity to specialise in your areas of interest such as counselling, criminal behaviour, mental health and occupational psychology.
