Psychology (A Level)

Course summary

The mind is something intangible that exists within our brain; an unseen process of enzymes, chemicals and electric currents. But why is it that some people suffer from stress or mental illness? Or that others are considered abnormal for deviating from social norms? Psychology looks at questions like these and more. It’s a fascinating science with cutting edge research that has real world applications that you are bound to find interesting. Psychology will complement just about any other subject. Students who study psychology often also study biology, sociology, business, English or physical education. Also students, who want a career in any of the caring services, or in marketing or human resources, will find an understanding of psychology useful.
