What you study	Psychology	Psychology	Psychology
What it is	Psychology is the scientific study of human behaviour and mental processes. You learn research methods, how to interpret data, and theories about why people think and act the way they do. The co-op option lets you work in real settings like clinics, schools, or research labs during your degree, giving you hands-on experience alongside your coursework.	You study human behaviour, thinking, and emotion from scientific and practical angles. A four-year honours degree goes deeper than a three-year general degree, with more advanced courses and often a research component. This program suits people curious about why people act and think the way they do, and who want to understand psychology well enough for graduate study or specialized careers in mental health, research, or counselling.	A Psychology BA is a three-year program where you study how people think, behave, and develop across their lifespan. You'll take courses in areas like cognitive psychology, social psychology, and research methods, learning both theory and how to conduct psychological research. The co-op option lets you alternate between semesters of study and paid work placements in psychology-related settings, which suits students who want practical experience alongside classroom learning.
