Psychology

About this course

Psychology is the scientific study of the human mind and behaviour, examining how we think, perceive, remember, feel, and relate to one another, and what happens when these processes go wrong. It sits at the intersection of the natural sciences and the social sciences, drawing on both to build a rigorous, evidence-based understanding of human experience. Studying psychology develops not just subject knowledge but genuine scientific literacy: the ability to design and conduct research, work with statistical data, evaluate evidence critically, and communicate findings clearly. At Birmingham Newman University this three-year full-time BSc programme offers a dynamic and inclusive introduction to the study of human thought and experience. You will build a solid foundation in psychological theory, research, and ethical practice, covering the core areas of cognitive, social, developmental, bio
