Psychology has been taught at Bangor University since 1963, attracting students and faculty from around the globe. We offer a diverse, multilingual, and inclusive environment to study human behaviour, led by internationally renowned experts at the forefront of research to promote psychological well-being throughout life.
The BSc (Hons) Psychology, accredited by the BPS, covers the investigation of human behaviour from infancy to old age, examining the many factors that affect the human psyche. From our biology and physiology to sociological influences like parenting, socialisation, education, through to therapeutic approaches and techniques, such as mindfulness and counselling.
The broadest Psychology degree option we offer, you’ll learn how the body and brain work together to navigate our complex internal and external environment – how, why and what happens when these systems stop working so well, are damaged, or develop in divergent ways. For example, in the case of neurodegenerative diseases, traumatic brain injuries, substance abuse, or the spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders.
