at University of Strathclyde United Kingdom

This course will help you develop the skills for a variety of marketing and psychology careers.

The Department of Marketing at Strathclyde is recognised as one of the leading centres of marketing education and research in the UK.

In psychology, you’ll study human behaviour. Psychological research is motivated by the desire to understand both general behaviour (how we learn, remember, co-ordinate our actions and interact with others) and the reason for the differences between individuals such as personality or intelligence.

Facilities
Our high-quality facilities include six purpose-built experimental research laboratories:

• Driving simulator lab
• Memory lab
• Perception and action lab
• Psychophysiology lab
• Psycholinguistics lab
• Oculomotor lab

We'll show you how exciting and wide-ranging our subject can be. Employers like the skills developed in an English degree: written and verbal communication, analysis and discussion of ideas and broad, creative thinking.

Our main focus in psychology is the study of human behaviour.

You'll study conditions of behaviour; how we learn, remember, coordinate our actions and interact with others. You'll also study the reasons for differences between individuals, such as personality or intelligence.

Due to the popularity of the course and performance criteria for entry into Honours (Year 4), numbers admitted to Years 2 and 3 of the course are limited.
