Teaching and assessment for Psychology with Spanish MA (Hons)

Teaching
Throughout your degree, you will learn how to apply the scientific method. This includes learning about key psychological theories, methodologies, and interventions. You will learn the history of the field and contribute to the future of the field with your own independent research project. You will learn how to apply theory to real-world settings and develop practical and applied skills.
Most modules in years 1 and 2 have two lectures and one tutorial or workshop each week.
In year 3 you will have multiple weekly lectures, regular workshops and practical sessions. You will also have tutorials centred around coursework.
In year 4, teaching is in much smaller groups. Our module options are informed by our staff's research expertise. This will provide you the opportunity to learn from those who are actively working in that area. These will, therefore, vary slightly from year to year.
In your final year, a supervisor will oversee a dissertation project where you will apply your research skills.
