Brief Description
Psychology is the study of human behaviour. It takes the form of a number of different approaches, including biological, psychodynamic, cognitive, behavioural and social theories. This course explores the richness of human functions and uncovers the secrets behind the brain, revealing its complexities and answering questions about how and why we behave, how do we remember, and why do we forget? Why do we like to eat, drink, sleep and have sex? Why do we conform and whom do we obey? Why and how do we fall in love? How do relationships break up?
This course is appropriate for gaining understanding of psychology and in preparation for more specialised courses.
It is a fascinating journey and we encourage all who are interested in the science of mind and behaviour to begin their studies here.
