Develop your research skills further with a focus on how we infer things about the world using data. This module gives you practical experience of research methods.

Explore the relationship between the brain and human behaviour, including how we sense the world, how we act in the world and how we think and feel about the world.

Delve into the fascinating world of the infant mind. You will cover a range of psychological processes, from the early building blocks of our cognitive skills, to how we form attachments and begin to create relationships. We will explore these processes from their very beginnings in the womb, through infancy, childhood, and adolescence.

How does your mind work? How do you see, hear, feel, and think? How do you make sense of the world and yourself? In this module, you'll discover the secrets of cognitive psychology - the science of the mind and behaviour. Learn how researchers use experiments and theories to understand the mental processes that shape our lives, explore topics like perception, attention, memory, language, and reasoning and see how they relate to your everyday experiences. This module will help you develop the skills and knowledge you need to become a critical thinker in the modern world. 

This module offers you the opportunity to make a difference, through education, from the beginning of your studies. As agents of educational change, you will explore the issues you are passionate about, alongside fellow students and academics. You will examine how mainstream education has been shaped through agendas of power and how knowledge contributes to maintaining or disrupting current educational provision. This module then introduces you to alternate approaches to education, and to the direct action of educators and learners to do education differently.  These approaches can act as drivers of social change to challenge poverty and inequity to enable education to create opportunities to develop  flourishing communities at local, national and global contexts

Social Justice and Social Change offers an exciting opportunity for you to make a difference from the outset of your study at the University of Hull through undertaking a placement in a relevant education setting. In scheduled learning and teaching sessions you will work collaboratively to co-produce the big social justice questions such as why are so many children still living in poverty in the UK? Why does inequality still exist? Such questions will provide drivers for social change and orientate practice to make a difference. With these big questions in mind, you will have an opportunity to become familiar with innovative and creative projects and initiatives that work with children, young people and communities. The School of Education hosts a range of exciting projects from citizen inquiry to participatory action research projects that you can engage with and we also have a wide partnership network in the city, region, nationally and internationally which can offer opportunities for you to learn about, get involved and make a difference.

Discover experimental designs involving multiple conditions and independent variables. You'll learn how to analyse data generated by these more complex designs.

On this module, you'll develop your qualitative data collection and analysis skills, and focus on psychometrics and the ability to process complex real-world secondary data sources.

Study more advanced topics including cognitive neuroscience and clinical neuropsychology. This module also introduces issues in comparative psychology and animal intelligence.
