Psychologists strive to understand, predict and affect human behaviour through documenting and research. The curriculum of Metropolitan College trains students to approach each case separately and subjectively. To this end, a large portion of the studies is dedicated to studying factors that affect the human function and include social, organic, developmental, cognitive and emotional implications. In addition, it emphasises on research methodology, through which students learn about research strategies and methods for analysing data.
The design and content of the BSc (Hons) Psychology programme meets the requirements of the British Psychological Society (BPS).
