Course Overview: A relatively new discipline within psychology, neuropsychology focuses on the relationships between the brain, its processes and our behaviour. Studying fundamental brain science allows us to predict outcomes and develop treatment for brain injury and impairment, as well as severe mental health conditions like schizophrenia, bipolar and depression. On this BPS-accredited Psychology degree, you’ll specialise in understanding the structure of the central nervous system and human brain, and how they influence human thought, perception, emotion, language and behaviour. You will also analyse what happens when the brain is damaged or impaired, for example, after head injury or stroke, and how to evaluate, treat and rehabilitate patients. 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 neuroscience, led by internationally renowned experts at the forefront of research to promote psychological well-being throughout life. Traumatic brain injury, biology, genetics or an adverse environment can all affect the brain’s structure, development and function at different stages of our lives. On this BSc (Hons) Psychology with Neuropsychology, you’ll examine how these, and other factors lead to impairments such as memory loss, motor control, learning difficulties or behavioural problems. Bangor’s research in neuropsychology, clinical and cognitive neuroscience is recognised internationally, with particular strengths in brain injury rehabilitation, neurodevelopment and diversity, and social disorders. One recent project, for example, explored how children interact with robots. The University has an extensive library of neuropsychological tests, a dedicated neurological patient research panel developed in collaboration with the NHS and employs the latest techniques to understand brain-behaviour relationships. Specialist laboratories enable computer-controlled reaction time experiments and online measurement of human eye, limb and hand movements. Successful completion of this accredited Psychology degree confers eligibility for Graduate Membership of the BPS and the Graduate Basis for Registration, setting you on the path to becoming a Chartered Psychologist in any of the main psychological professions (clinical, educational, counselling, health, developmental, cognitive neuroscience, applied behaviour analysis).
