Psychology
How does our mind affect our behaviour? And how does our body affect our mind? Gain a deeper understanding of yourself (and others).
Learning
Outline
We’re all wired differently. Our minds are a complex map of thought processes and emotions, influenced by our pasts, environments, and character traits. It’s what rules us and our reactions. Neurotypically, everything is kept ticking over at a steady rate. But when chemicals are out of sync, disorders occur. Study Psychology with us and explore them in-depth, learning about psychology through history to today, alternative theories and approaches, the fundamentals of neuroanatomy, and the psychology and physiology of the human brain.
Teaching methodology
Learn the Oxford way with tutorial-style teaching. Your expert tutor will foster self-directed learning and critical thinking through interactive seminars in small groups (no bigger than 8). During your course, you will complete two pieces of independent work (essays or problem sheets), which your tutor will then evaluate in either a 1:1 or 2:1 tutorial. Tutorials will provide you with the opportunity to discuss your work and feedback with your tutor and learn new perspectives from your classmates. On completion of the course, you'll receive a certificate and letter of recommendation from your tutor.
