Psychology

Course summary

The course takes a linear approach and is therefore studied over two years. It consists of three papers that all contribute to our understanding of the world in which we live. Psychology is often a brand new subject for students with many simply believing that it teaches us how to read minds, this is however of course not the case. Psychology is for students who want to understand human behaviour and the science behind the thoughts that we have. The main aim of this course is to give students an understanding of how the human mind works using scientific principles. Psychologists look at all aspects of behaviour and thought in order to establish patterns and develop explanations.
