Program description
Psychology is the scientific study of the most complicated mechanism known: the human mind. On this flexible degree, you may study the science underlying human behavior and personalize your studies to your own interests.
You will investigate how actions, interactions, ideas, and emotions influence our behavior. Then, via an optional work placement, you may put your knowledge into practice and see how theory relates to real-life circumstances. This means you get a broad range of experience and abilities. You will graduate with a thorough awareness of how psychology influences our daily lives, as well as a set of useful transferable abilities.
You will learn:
- How we see, think, and learn about the world around us
- How memory is generated and what influences how we recall
- How everyone communicates, both verbally and nonverbally
- How biological and social variables affect behavior
- How intellect, emotion, and socialization evolve throughout our lives
