About 3-Term Pathway - International Year One in Psychology - Continue to Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Psychology with Cognitive Neuroscience (Year Abroad)
Program Description
For students that completed high school with good grades but don’t qualify for entry to an undergraduate degree, they could study an International Year One, which combines university preparation with degree 1st year. After completing this pathway option students qualify for progression to the 2nd year of an undergraduate degree at the University of Essex.
Students’ course length is determined mainly by their English language level (UKVI IELTS score). Students on all course lengths take a set of common or similar modules to gain a solid base of skills for university. If the course is longer than 2 terms, they’ll take additional modules designed to improve one or more of their English language level, academic skills, and basic knowledge of particular subjects.
Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Psychology with Cognitive Neuroscience (Including Year Abroad)
This contemporary area of psychology investigates areas ranging from vision, hearing and touch to the mechanisms underlying language, action, attention, emotion and social processes. The University of Essex's Centre for Brain Science allows students to discover the neurophysiological processes that take place in our bodies and brains.
Students have the freedom and facilities to study and experiment, explore and research the human mind. They cover core areas in psychology and cognitive neuroscience including:
- Brain and behaviour
- Methods in cognitive neuroscience
- Applied psychology
- Language, memory and perception
- Developmental psychology
At Essex, they provide one of the most immersive and exciting experience of studying the human mind in the UK. Students learn from researchers, and can work together in the same space via Research Experience Scheme (RES) which gives students the opportunity to work one-on-one with a psychologist as their research assistant.
