Is this programme for you?
You are fascinated by people and their behaviour; you are interested in learning about the various theories explaining behaviour and you are a good listener. If you are a curious and analytical person and you like studying in groups, as well as on your own, then our BSc in Psychology is perfect for you.
Why is one person less likely to be overworked than other? What causes agoraphobia? Does your personality change as you get older? What happens in your brain when you use drugs or alcohol? Are you ready for the many challenges of studying behaviour, awareness and the brain? As a Psychology student, you will study the behaviour of people, their capabilities and their limitations.
