Course overview
Studying Psychology will give you expert scientific training in the relationship between the mind, brain, and behaviour.
You will study the psychological and neuro-scientific processes that underpin activities such as thinking, reasoning, memory and language, learn about the effects of brain injury, and explore ways to improve health-related behaviour.
You will develop excellent research, written, and critical analysis skills, as well as a high degree of numeracy and ICT ability.
Our approach to teaching, which includes lectures, personal tutorials, academic seminars, workshops, and practical research classes, encourages effective team-working and high-quality oral communication skills.
It is also possible for you to study some of the modules through the medium of Welsh, should you choose to, which will provide you with the ability to use your skills in a wider variety of employment contexts.
