BA/BS in Psychology & Technology

The programme looks at how technology shapes human behaviour and how psychological knowledge can be applied to make technology more effective for its users. It gives students a grounding in behavioural science and research methods, alongside engineering-style thinking developed through specialising in one of three technical areas: robotics, ICT, or the built environment. Much of the teaching is challenge-based, with students tackling real problems, including a multidisciplinary project in the second year alongside students from other programmes. A choice of freely selectable subjects allows further tailoring of the curriculum, and the degree concludes with a final project that is either a research project or work undertaken at the university's innovation space on challenges tackled together with students from other, mostly corporate, programmes.
