Psychology

Course summary

Anyone interested in why people behave the way they do: Psychological theories and knowledge are based on relevant, accurate research and form the basis for practical applications that affect our lives in all areas of performance, for example in education, childcare, sport, medicine and the workplace. Psychology develops skills of numeracy and literacy and combines well with science and arts/humanities subjects. It is considered a science by most degree courses, but not all; individual institutions should be contacted to confirm their position.
