The Department of Psychology has an excellent reputation for providing research-led and student-centred teaching. We offer undergraduate, postgraduate and research students the opportunity to be taught in a friendly and supportive atmosphere by staff who are active in research and experts in their field.
Psychology is the study of the human mind, and how and why we behave the way we do. Within our purpose-built department featuring state-of-the-art facilities and laboratories, we provide a wide range of courses and research degrees to develop your learning, and give you a solid grounding in empirical methods, theories and discoveries.
