BSc Psychology and Sociology

The BSc Psychology and Sociology is an undergraduate course that combines the study of human behaviour from two different points of view. Psychology looks at human actions on a more personal level, considering factors like genetics and individual development, while sociology examines social issues and relations within communities. This programme helps students develop an understanding of both subjects and gain valuable research and analytical skills.

The course is designed to ensure that students gain a thorough understanding of core areas in psychology and sociology. They will learn about different concepts and theories and have the chance to explore more complex topics as they progress.

They can also focus on an area that interests them for their final research project, giving them the chance to apply their knowledge and skills in an independent way.
