Advanced Topics in Psychology (C8525)

15 credits, Level 6

Spring teaching

On this module, you’ll discuss current topics across a range of psychology disciplines, including:

  • health and clinical psychology
  • child development
  • sensory and perceptual systems
  • animal behaviour
  • group processes.

You’ll cover both cutting-edge methods and state-of-the-art theoretical approaches. You’ll gain a critical insight into how psychology is informing our understanding of our world and society today.

We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2026/27. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.

We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
