Course summary

About this course

The course is a specialised variant of our BSc (Hons) Psychology degree, and includes modules tailored towards a Cognition and Neuroscience emphasis in Years One and Two, and specialist option modules in Year Three which will give you insights in the complex mechanisms of the human brain and mind.

The course is accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS), and covers all the core areas of Psychology stipulated by the BPS curriculum. This includes the workings of the brain the processes and mechanisms of human thinking, feeling and behaviour and how psychologists, psychological research and therapy can make a tangible and positive difference to peoples lives and society. You'll also consider how all of these impact and relate to psychology.

You'll be taught by our team of over 150 expert psychologists in one of the largest Psychology departments in the UK, and will be able to take advantage of our innovative Psychology laboratories to carry out your research and data analysis. Our teaching is delivered by scholars who are recognised as world-leading as evidenced by the 2021 Research Excellence Framework (REF).

If you have applied for the four-year sandwich course (C807), you will complete a year-long work placement. You will be supported by the university and course team to secure your placement. All of our courses offer work-like experience and we'll support you to develop your work experience or find a placement. You can also do a year-long sandwich placement in Year Three.

The BSc (Hons) Psychology (Cognition and Neuroscience) course is taught by experienced staff used to working with students from a range of backgrounds and with varying levels of skill and experience.

To provide you with a first-class learning experience and to guarantee you have an opportunity to make the most of your time at university, you will receive contact time through a diverse range of delivery methods that include lectures, workshops, and one-on-one supervision.

Study abroad opportunities

If you are on the three-year full-time course, you may also have the chance to study abroad at one of our partner universities. You'll decide early on in your first year if you would like to apply to take part in the exchange programme. You would study abroad between Year Two and Year Three, and it would therefore involve extending the course length to four years.

Placement year opportunities

You also have the option of choosing a four-year course that includes a year-long placement between Year 2 and your final year which we will support you to find. You must apply with the UCAS code for the sandwich course listed at the top of this page to be considered for this.
