As a student, you will begin to explore issues such as these, learning to support an argument with the rigours of scientific testing. Indeed, the main aim of the undergraduate programme is to encourage the objectivity and detachment needed to study psychology as a science. You will learn to use research methods including observation, measurement, hypothesis testing, experimentation, and logical inference. You will also learn to use statistical analysis and to develop writing and communication skills.
