I chose to study Psychology at ºù«Ӱҵ because it really allows you to pursue the areas of Psychology that you love the most, from neuroscience to social psychology.
The optional modules are so diverse you can find something you are interested in, as well as things you didn’t even consider. For example, in first year, one of my modules took me to the robotics labs where I ended up coding a model neuron and learning about how Psychology can be used to develop artificial intelligence.
One of the most exciting things I do in my course is, surprisingly, my dissertation, as it involves me working with virtual reality. The technology is not something I would get to use in everyday life and I’m really enjoying the experience
