Swansea University spans two campuses situated in a stunning coastal location, making it a highly desirable place for students to study and conduct research since 1920.
From master’s degrees to PhD study, Swansea offers postgraduate programmes in a wide variety of subject areas which are informed by the latest developments in research and innovation.
Based within the Faculty of Medicine, Health and Life Science, the School of Psychology is dedicated to advancing the understanding of human behaviour and mental processes. The school is renowned for its innovative teaching and research, offering a catalogue of postgraduate programmes that blend theoretical knowledge with practical application. With a focus on critical thinking, scientific inquiry, and real-world relevance, students are equipped with the skills needed to excel in a range of psychology-related careers.
Located on the beach-front Singleton Campus, students at the School of Psychology can take advantage of the advanced laboratories equipped for cognitive neuroscience, psychophysiology, and behavioural research, enabling students and researchers to explore complex psychological phenomena. Some of our facilities include a high-density EEG suite, a fully fitted sleep laboratory, a social observation suite, eye-tracking, psychophysiological, tDCS and conditioning labs, a lifespan lab and baby room, plus over 20 all-purpose research rooms. The dedicated spaces such as the observation suites with one-way mirrors and soundproof rooms provide ideal environments for studying human behaviour and conducting experiments. Teaching and learning are also enhanced through modern lecture theatres, interactive seminar rooms, and access to up-to-date software and tools for data analysis.
Research programmes have entry points in January, April, July and September each year.
