You will study the psychological and neuro-scientific processes that underpin activities such as thinking, reasoning, memory, and language, learn about the effects of brain injury, and explore ways to improve health-related behaviour. You will develop excellent research, written, and critical analysis skills, as well as a high degree of numeracy and ICT ability. Our approach to teaching, which includes lectures, personal tutorials, academic seminars, workshops, and practical research classes, encourages effective team-working and high-quality oral communication skills.
