What the college says

"Why do some people seem to have amazing memories, and others just can’t seem to remember what they did yesterday? What does it mean to be mentally ill, and what causes depression, schizophrenia, and phobias? Ever wondered why some people grow up to be violent murderers, or why the person in class next to you is just so disobedient and won’t do what they are told? Psychology is the study of people, the mind and behaviour. If you are interested in finding out why people behave the way they do or how the brain works, then Psychology could be for you. Psychology will develop your knowledge and understanding of the world around you and skills of analysis and evaluation in relation to each of the topics below."
