Psychology with Child Development

About this course

Psychology with child development brings together two closely related fields to examine how human minds and behaviour are shaped from the earliest stages of life. Psychology as a discipline seeks to understand thought, perception, emotion, social behaviour, mental health and individual differences through rigorous scientific methods. Child development focuses that lens specifically on the processes by which children grow, learn, form relationships and navigate the world, drawing on developmental psychology, education research and attachment theory to understand what supports or hinders healthy development. Together these fields have profound implications for education, healthcare, social work, policy and parenting. You will gain a thorough grounding in psychological science, covering topics such as cognitive psychology, biological bases of behaviour, social psychology, research methods
