Course overview
Psychologists are interested in the way biological and social factors influence how we behave, and how interests and abilities differ from person to person. They also study how we perceive, think, and learn about the world around us. They examine how we communicate verbally and non-verbally, and how and why our mental abilities change across our lives.
Psychology is an experimental and observational science, in which evidence from research studies is used to develop and evaluate theories. Our programme has a strong emphasis on developing skills in research methods and statistical analysis, to support our research-led teaching.
Business courses focus on the theories and methods behind successful management and explore the relationships between people, organisations and their environment. You will study organisational policies, strategic planning, employment relations, finance, marketing and technology.
