The course integrates theoretical psychology, techniques of psychological investigation and major areas of applied psychology. In the first two years you will focus on theoretical aspects and develop expertise in a broad range of research methodologies. In your final year, you will apply your knowledge and skills to conduct original research in your chosen field, and develop specialist knowledge by selecting options to fit your interests and career goals.
