What the college says

Psychology is a broad subject, covering topics that overlap with many other disciplines. At times, studying Psychology looks and feels like a Natural Science, for example when studying the structure and function of the human nervous system or the way neurotransmitters work. At other times it overlaps with subjects within the Arts, such as Media Studies (for example, looking at the process of social learning and the impact of role models), PE (for example, studying the processes involved in conditioning), Business Studies (for example theories of motivation) and even English Literature (for example, looking at Freudian concepts or theories of gender). This course will teach you that human behaviour is complex and it will encourage you to seek to understand, rather than to judge, others.
