Advanced Psychology

About this course

Advanced psychology is a degree that takes the standard undergraduate curriculum in psychology and goes significantly further, allowing you to develop your knowledge and skills to a level that prepares you more thoroughly for research, clinical practice or postgraduate study. Psychology as a discipline studies mind, brain and behaviour through scientific methods, investigating topics from perception, memory and decision-making to personality, social influence, mental health and the neurological bases of human experience. An advanced programme deepens your engagement with both the theoretical foundations and the research methods of the field. At Leeds, this four-year full-time programme is accredited by the British Psychological Society, which is a critical professional recognition for anyone considering a career in psychology.
