Course summary
Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and behaviour, so virtually anything related to the behaviour of humans and animals - normal or abnormal, social or personal, adult or child, subjective feelings or overt behaviour - is of interest to psychologists. Psychology is a science, with all our students taking modules in statistics and experimental design, as required by our accrediting body, the British Psychological Society (BPS). Our Psychology degree programme is very diverse and stimulating and is consistently rated as 'excellent' by both our students and external examiners. Intercalating with Psychology At the end of second or third year, Medical and Dental students may apply to take a year out of their studies to intercalate. This extra research-focused year will lead to either a BSc Psychology (Intercalated) or a MSc Psychology of Performance Enhancement in Sport and Health qualification. For more information please contact Dr Matthew Rodger (m.rodger@qub.ac.uk) for BSc queries and Dr Mihalis Doumas (m.doumas@qub.ac.uk) for MSc queries. Available after the third year only.
