PSYCHOLOGY

Psychology is the study of the mind and seeks to understand how people think and behave. Our behaviours, emotions, and thought process are looked at from a scientific lens which can lead to work in therapeutic setting as well as in areas of marketing and human resources. BE CAREFUL - a lot of psychology degrees will have an element of maths/statistics so make sure you look at each individual university course to see what you are letting yourself in for!
