Course summary

BSc (Hons) Psychology and Cognitive Neuroscience with foundation year degree explores links between the human mind, behaviour and the biological structures and processes of the brain, offering you the opportunity to deepen and enrich your understanding of these interrelated fields. Focusing on human psychology, our expert and dedicated team will guide you to gain a sound understanding of mental and psychological processes and develop advanced knowledge of the neural, hormonal, and molecular structures and networks that underpin the mind.

The foundation year is the first year of this degree. Designed to prepare you for degree-level study, it offers an excellent grounding in the fundamentals of psychology, social sciences and research methods alongside study skills development.

This interdisciplinary course reflects the growing need for psychologists with a solid background in neuroscience. Knowledge of how the brain works can be vital to understanding mental processes. Throughout this degree, you'll have the opportunity to develop a deep understanding of the science and theories of psychology and neuroscience and gain a firm grounding in study and research methods. Together, we'll explore how the brain's complex biological structures and networks shape, and are shaped, by our experiences.
