Psychology

Course summary

Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and behaviour. Students taking this subject need an interest in scientific analysis and evaluation, as well as having an interest in human behaviour in general. It doesn't entail reading minds, dream analysis or the manipulation of others. Psychologists test theories about human behaviour using experiments and other non-experimental research techniques. Psychology is a diverse subject, which complements many other subjects in the arts, humanities, sciences, mathematics and social science.
