Course summary

On this Linguistics and Psychology joint honours degree you’ll explore how and why we learn, think and feel. The degree offers insight into the ways in which the human body and brain work together to communicate and interact with others, and navigate our complex internal and external environment.Linguistics focuses on how we learn a language, how language varies between speakers and geographic regions, and how it influences thinking and the ways in which we interact we each other. Psychology helps you understand how, why and what happens when our brain and body systems stop working so well, are damaged, or develop in divergent ways.Linguistics enables you to study the science behind language, comparing different languages and linguistic systems. Topics covered include the possible sounds used in speech and their combination (phonetics, phonology), how words are built up (morphology), what distinguishes sentences from just strings of words (syntax), meaning (semantics and pragmatics), how language is acquired and processed both by neuro-typical and neuro-diverse individuals, the effect that society, culture and norms have upon language use (sociolinguistics) and bilingualism, multilingualism and how languages change over timeOur psychology degrees are designed to develop well-rounded knowledge of psychology and understanding of how psychological theory and practice is applied to experiences and behaviours, under normal circumstances and during stress, injury or illness, throughout the lifespan. Our world-leading researchers will share with you their latest developments in psychological theory, research and practice.A Linguistics and Psychology degree is excellent preparation for the wide range of careers that require a solid understanding of human behaviour, development and communication or language-focused professional skills.‘Placement Year’ and 'International Experience Year’ options are available for this course. You will have the opportunity to fully consider these options when you have started your course at Bangor and can make an application for a transfer onto such a pathway at the appropriate time. You can find more information about these options on our website and if you have any questions, please get in touch.If you don’t have the required qualifications for this degree-level course or are looking to re-enter education after time away from study, then a Foundation Year Programme might be the right choice for you.
