Advanced Cognitive Psychology

Students will explore cutting-edge issues in cognition and will be encouraged to demonstrate their critical thinking skills on a choice of contemporary topics. These are likely to be language, visual cognition and synaesthesia, and forensic cognition.

During this module, students can opt to focus on two of the three taught modules for exam assessment, and choose a research paper topic of their choice (in a group setting) under advice from seminar tutors. This allows them to concentrate on the options that they find most engaging, appealing, and relevant to their degree profile.
