| 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. | 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. | Cognitive science studies how the mind works by combining insights from psychology, biology, computer science, linguistics, and philosophy. This non-honours version gives you a broader survey of these fields rather than the deeper specialization of an honours degree, so you spend less time on advanced research methods and theory. It suits students curious about how thinking, language, and brain function connect, who want flexibility to explore multiple disciplines without committing to one. |
