Gain a thorough grounding in theoretical perspectives, along with state-of-the-art research techniques.

Study applied psychology in an intellectually stimulating and supportive environment. You'll learn from faculty in Social and Applied Psychology - one of the largest groups of social and applied social psychologists in the country, and one of the UK’s leading research groups.

We have expertise in the areas of:

• consumer beliefs and behaviour
• intergroup relations and crowd dynamics
• issues related to health and illness
• psychological interventions.

You’ll develop the skills to undertake postgraduate research in psychology, or to embark on policy-related work or a wide variety of careers involving research.
