Psychology/Statistics

About this course

Psychology and statistics is an intellectually powerful combination, pairing one of the most empirically active of the social sciences with one of the core mathematical disciplines underlying all quantitative research. Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and behaviour, asking how people think, act, react, and interact, and how this understanding can help address both individual and wider societal problems. Statistics provides the methodological infrastructure for answering empirical questions rigorously, developing your ability to design studies, analyse data, and draw valid inferences from complex and noisy observations. At the University of Glasgow, this four-year programme carries a typical entry tariff of 216 points and includes a year abroad, reflecting the demands of a combination that requires genuine proficiency in both disciplines at one of the UK's leading research
