About this course

By combining these two unique disciplines you'll gain an understanding of how:

  • our minds develop and function

  • we think about our lives, relationships and society

    You don't need to have formally studied either subject before - beginners with enthusiasm and a desire to learn welcome.

    Philosophy The first year gives you a solid foundation in the essentials such as ethics, reasoning and logic. From then on you're free to choose from our unusually wide range of optional topics. You can:

  • explore crime and justice, race and gender, politics and religion

  • examine emerging areas like environmental and social philosophy

  • investigate global philosophical traditions - Western, Indian and Chinese

    Psychology Learn about the structure of the brain, as well as the perceptions, thoughts, feelings and actions of people. We'll give you a thorough grounding in key theories and concepts of:

  • biological

  • cognitive

  • developmental

  • social psychology

    You'll also examine how these apply in settings such as the education, criminal justice and mental health systems.
