During your first year, you'll receive a broad introduction to core areas of psychology, as well as relevant practical and research methods. 

You'll study topics such as development and social psychology, cognitive psychology, sensation and perception, and the history of psychology. 

In Stage 2, you'll start to specialise in the areas that interest you most. 

Alongside core topics including developmental psychology, individual differences, biological psychology, and statistics for experimental psychology, you'll be able to choose from optional modules such as perception, animal cognition, and clinical psychology. 

In Stage 3, you'll be able to focus on your chosen specialist area.

You'll design and carry out your own empirical study in an area of psychology that particularly interests you. 

You'll also have the opportunity to explore further areas of interest, including the psychology of religion, the damaged brain, foundations in forensic psychology, psychology for sport performance, and consumer psychology. There are no module restrictions, allowing you to study areas that will prepare you for the next steps in your chosen career.
