Psychology with Child Development with Foundation Year

About this course

Psychology with child development combines the scientific study of the mind and behaviour with a focused understanding of how children grow, think and develop from infancy through adolescence. Psychology as a discipline uses rigorous research methods to investigate perception, memory, emotion, social behaviour and mental health, drawing on neuroscience, cognitive science and social psychology to build an evidence-based account of human experience. Child development adds depth to that picture by examining the particular processes of growth, learning, attachment and socialisation that characterise childhood and adolescence, connecting developmental science to educational and clinical practice. At York St John, this four-year full-time programme opens with a foundation year, providing a structured introduction to degree-level study that builds the academic skills and subject knowledge need
