About

Psychology is the scientific study of the most complex machine imaginable: the human mind. This BPS-accredited Psychology with Development and Education (Hons) degree at  Abertay University helps you learn how children and adolescents develop, learn, reason, and socialise, as well as exploring atypical development including neurodivergence.

Visit programme website for more information

Overview

The first two years of this  Abertay University degree in  Psychology with Development and Education (Hons) are designed to help you dig deep into the science of psychology, learning the way humans think, feel and behave. In years three and four, you take more advanced options related to your specialist pathway, covering development and education in more depth.

Our academic experts will give you a deep understanding of developmental and educational psychology, including:

  • Education and learning.
  • A child’s place in society.
  • How children interact with technology.
  • How children develop.

Psychology is both an experimental and observational science. This means you will observe and measure human behaviour, tackle literature research, and develop, test, and evaluate theories. This culminates in conducting your own supervised research project in your final year, which is one of the corner stones of your degree.

Why study Psychology with Development and Education?

We equip our students with an understanding of children's minds, emotions, and behaviour at different stages of childhood and adolescence, giving you with the tools to work with children and young adults. 

We teach you about cuting-edge research illuminating the reasons for development disorders and psychological challenges, as well as effective support and treatment. Alongside this, you will gain skills in report writing, numeracy, statistics and IT, communication, and analytical thinking. All of which helps you in the world of work and further study, whichever route you decide on after graduation.
