4 Why study Psychology? Psychology is the study of how people think, react and interact. It is concerned with all aspects of behaviour and the thoughts, feelings and motivations that underlie such behaviour. As such, there are many different reasons why people choose to study Psychology. Psychology relates to the whole range of human experience, from visual perception to complex social interactions. As psychologists we seek to answer questions as diverse as why we perceive visual illusions, how infants develop an understanding of the world around them, why driving while using a mobile phone can be dangerous, and what factors can explain the emergence of psychological disorders. Studying psychology provides an initial breadth across all of these fascinating topics, followed by a more specialised focus on the topics that interest you as you progress. Importantly, a Psychology degree develops both high level literacy and numeracy skills, which is one of the reasons it is such a popular degree with employers. It involves learning transferable skills such as critical reading, report writing, interviewing, survey research, observation, measurement, experimentation and using statistics to assess the significance of research findings. These skills are relevant to a wide number of occupational settings. 4

6 Department and facilities A long history The university has a long and proud history, stretching back to 1849 when Bedford College (which merged with Royal Holloway in 1985) was founded in London, and 1886, when Queen Victoria opened Royal Holloway College in Egham, Surrey. Since then, Royal Holloway has grown exponentially due to its success, and along the way developed a reputation for cutting edge research and outstanding teaching. Bedford College was the first English university to appoint a female Professor and, with Royal Holloway College, was at the forefront of providing opportunities for women to study at university. Graduates of our university have included internationally renowned scientists, such as Professor Samuel Tolansky, Professor Michael Eysenck (former Head of the Psychology Department), as well as innovators in the world of the arts, such as singer-songwriter KT Tunstall and poet laureate, Sir Andrew Motion. First-class facilities We have one of the best-equipped Psychology departments in the country, with a variety of research labs reflecting the diverse nature of ongoing research in the Department. We have our own on-site magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner, for studying brain structure and activity, and instruments for recording electrical changes in the brain (EEG). We also have a range of other facilities including apparatus to stimulate focal areas in the brain (TMS), technology for tracking eye movements, systems for tracking precise body movements in very young children and adults, the ability to create virtual reality environments, CCTV and video systems for discreet observation of behaviour and a dedicated baby lab for studying the development of young infants. Opportunities for further study The Department has a growing portfolio of Masters courses (see website), with a new Masters in Forensic Psychology (offered jointly with the Criminology & Sociology Department) due to come on stream soon. There is also a vibrant community of PhD students within the Department working on cutting-edge research spanning a wide range of areas within Psychology. Unlike many Psychology departments, we also have a dedicated Clinical Psychology department providing graduate training in clinical psychology. This provides rich opportunities for undergraduates to learn from staff who treat clients on a daily basis, as well as placement options in clinically relevant research. 6

8 Degree programmes and structure degree programmes BSc Psychology BSc Applied Psychology BSc Psychology, Development & Developmental Disorders BSc Psychology, Clinical Psychology & Mental Health BSc Psychology, Clinical & Cognitive Neuroscience Joint degrees BSc Criminology & Psychology UCAS code C800 C804 C805 C806 C807 CL83 BSc Psychology Clinical Psychology & Mental Health focuses upon the study of psychological problems in children and adults, as well as the study of how psychological factors are related to physical health and the prevention of illness. Single honours degrees Below are details of our Psychology single honours degrees. It will be possible to change between the different single honours programmes at the end of the first year of study, subject to availability. All our single honours degrees are recognised by the British Psychological Society as the Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership. This means that they qualify students to undertake postgraduate study in Psychology once they have graduated. BSc Psychology will give students a thorough understanding of how research into human behaviour can be conducted across different core areas of Psychology, without limiting study to any specific area. During year three students are able to choose between a wide range of advanced options, covering all the major areas of experimental Psychology. Additionally, students may complete an independent literature review on a topic of their choosing. BSc Applied Psychology focuses on applying psychological research to real world issues, offering a broader social and occupational context. Topics include how we can modify health and social behaviour, research into psychological problems and understanding of interventions for children and adults, and also how Psychology can be used in the workplace, in education and when exploring criminal behaviour. view Dr Marco Cinnirella, Senior Lecturer and Undergraduate Admissions Tutor. Applicants often ask me how our Psychology degrees are different to those offered by competing universities. One of the things I tell them is to look at the research interests of staff, because in the final year of an undergraduate degree, staff integrate their own research into their teaching, and students have an opportunity to work under the supervision of a member of staff on a research project. It s therefore in the final year that you can often notice the most differences between Departments. Here at Royal Holloway, students are fortunate that we have world-class researchers in all core, as well as many applied, areas of Psychology, and this is reflected in an exciting array of optional courses in the final year of our degree programmes. 8

9 Example course structure - BSc single honours programmes Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Introduction to Psychological Research Psychological Research Methods and Analysis Research Project Lifespan Development Cognitive Psychology PLUS six modules dependent on BSc programme, which include: Biological Foundations of Psychology Social Psychology Language, Communication and Thought Learning and Memory Developmental Psychology The Ageing Brain Abnormal Psychology Personality and Individual Differences Adult Psychological Problems Self and Society Brain and Behaviour Developmental Disorders Sensation and Perception Conceptual Issues in Psychology Clinical and Cognitive Neuroscience Occupational and Organisational Psychology The full range of modules for each degree programme including the Joint Honours programme Criminology & Psychology is available online. Human Performance: Work, Sport and Medicine Criminal and Forensic Psychology BSc Psychology Development & Developmental Disorders focuses on issues related to the study of typical and atypical child development and development through the life span, including the development of cognitive and social skills in infancy and early childhood, and developmental disorders such as autism, Down syndrome, dyslexia and attention deficit hyperactive disorder. BSc Psychology Clinical & Cognitive Neuroscience examines the relationships between the brain and higher functions such as decision-making and consciousness, the causes, symptoms and treatments of common brain disorders such as stroke and Parkinson s disease, and methods for studying the brain such as functional MRI. All students take the same courses in the first and second year, regardless of their overall degree option. In the final year, students on the BSc Psychology course continue to cover a broad range of fields of Psychology, while students on the specialised programmes study a more focused set of options relevant to their degree title. First year courses Single Honours students take four courses in each term of the first year. One of the courses running all year focuses on how to design and run research, providing first year students with practical experience in carrying out simple experiments and analysing data, and includes the Psychology Toolkit of essential transferable and specialist skills. There are also introductory courses in Lifespan Development, Biological Foundations of Psychology, Learning and Memory, Abnormal Psychology, Self and Society, and Sensation and Perception. Second year courses Courses in the second year build on the knowledge gained in the first year. They are more specialised and give students the chance to learn about particular topics in greater depth and introduce new topics such as Individual Differences and Brain and Behaviour. Second year students are expected to carry out more independent reading and to begin to design their own research. Third year courses During this year students on the BSc Psychology course can select between a broad range of modules, including a theoretical dissertation of their choice, while students on the specialised programmes focus on options relevant to their degree choice. All students carry out an empirical research project. Modules are closely linked to the research interests of members of staff and are highly specialised such as Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience, Criminal and Forensic Psychology and Developmental Psychology. They give students an opportunity to learn about the most recent developments in their chosen areas. We also offer third year courses with linked work experience opportunities, for example students have been placed locally in the Mercedes-Benz Driving Academy, designing and conducting surveys. For full listings of our current courses for all three years, visit: royalholloway.ac.uk/psychology/prospectivestudents. Our website gives detailed information about the content of all our courses and modules available on each degree programme as well as more information about the Department and the staff. Joint honours degree BSc Criminology and Psychology is a joint degree with the Centre for Criminology and Sociology and consists of equal units in each department in the first two years, with some flexibility in the final year. It will give students an understanding of the biological, social, clinical and cognitive factors that influence behaviour alongside the study of crime, criminality, and the criminal justice system. The Centre for Criminology and Sociology is the home department for students choosing to take this programme. To find out more about this programme visit: royalholloway.ac.uk/psychology/prospectivestudents. An application for the accreditation of this joint honours programme has been submitted to The British Psychological Society. 9

10 Teaching and assessment Teaching Teaching in the involves lectures, workshops, practical classes and small-group tutorials. In the final year, students also benefit from individual and small-group supervision of research projects and dissertations by academic staff members. Throughout year one and two, students attend tutorials where they get the chance to discuss topics in small groups with a member of academic staff or a postgraduate. Students also regularly meet with their personal advisor, a member of academic staff, to discuss the student s progress and receive advice throughout all three years of the degree. Personal advisors give advice on how to prepare coursework, how to develop written and spoken communication skills and careers. Students fill out questionnaires to provide us with feedback about all our teaching. There is also a staff-student committee where student representatives from each year of the course have an opportunity to discuss issues with members of the academic staff. Assessment We use a variety of different methods of assessment. Most courses have a coursework component. This might be an essay about a controversial issue, an analysis of a video, a report of an experiment or a critical analysis of a recent paper. Some courses involve oral presentations. Many courses also have a written examination in May or June. Progression to the next year is dependent on passing compulsory courses. 10

11 World class research The research environment within the Department is of international quality. In the latest nationwide Research Assessment Exercise, Psychology was ranked 7th in the UK. Our research is organised around four key research themes: Health and wellbeing Social and affective processes Language, memory and attention Perception, action and decision making Within each theme, researchers study all levels of human behaviour, from the nuts and bolts of how the brain processes information, to childhood development, social interaction, and clinical and patient groups. Research projects In the third year of the degree, students carry out a group research project. This is supervised by a member of academic staff who works closely with students to develop a research idea, design a study, analyse the results and write a report. The range of topics for research projects reflects the wide research interests of our academic staff. Recent project themes include: children s understanding of emotions the relation of anxiety, depression and life difficulties to the cognitive capacity of students the effects of leading questions and line-up format on eye-witness testimony factors influencing the drop-out of young females from exercise in the school years investigating the neural mechanisms of working memory psychological stress, problem-solving skills and alcohol consumption the influence of hands-free mobile phones on attention in drivers brain imaging stereotyping of females who play male-stereotyped sports Research Focus: Staff profile Research Focus: Staff profile Dr Carolyn McGettigan I run the Vocal Communication Laboratory, where I research all aspects of human vocal communication and their neural underpinnings. This includes work on how we understand and produce speech, the perception and production of emotional vocalisations like laughter and crying, the recognition of vocal identities and aspects of audiovisual communication involving voices and faces. I m also fascinated by vocal experts such as impressionists and beatboxers, and have had the opportunity to peek inside the brains of the actress Fiona Shaw and beatboxers Reeps One and Intensi T. My main research method is magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and with support from The Royal Society I am developing new methods to record speech and vocalisations using the scanner. I also use electroencephalography (EEG), and in Summer 2013 one of our undergraduate students ran a study with me here at Royal Holloway to investigate audiovisual processing of speech intelligibility. Aside from research, my main passions are cycling, coriander and the Eurovision Song Contest - you ll hear quite a bit about the latter in my lectures! Dr Laura Mickes My research program is largely concerned with theories of recognition memory, and I have extended this work to applications of eyewitness memory. Recently, with John Wixted at UC San Diego, we used a new analysis technique to compare witness accuracy for different types of identity parades used in criminal investigations. We found that sequential line-ups, where each face is shown in turn, are inferior to the simultaneous procedure where all faces can be viewed at the same time. This was a surprising result, as there was a long held belief that sequential line-ups were better. However, many labs have now replicated this finding using our novel analysis approach. We have developed a hypothesis to account for why witness identification would be less accurate for sequential line-ups than simultaneous procedures, and I am currently testing the predictions made by the hypothesis in my new lab at Royal Holloway. My other research interests include: mechanisms of memory for social information; gender stereotypes on humour production; and replicability of menstrual cycle shift effects on attitudes and preferences. view Louise Bunce, BSc Psychology For my third year project, I took the opportunity to investigate the effect of the Harry Potter stories on children s understanding of fantasy. The process was not only a learning experience, but it also puts research into a real world context. 11

12 Your future career In the we take an active interest in preparing our students for life after university, and throughout your time with us we offer personal guidance aimed at improving employability. As an example, each year we organise a meet the Grads event, where a diverse selection of our graduates return to the Department and talk to current students about their career paths. The university has an excellent careers service which can help with practice interviews, CV preparation and finding placements and voluntary work to enhance CVs. All of this hard work to prepare our graduates for employment is reflected in the excellent employment rates students have after graduating. Graduates from the work for a wide variety of organisations, such as: the NHS Ipsos Mori Ernst & Young local government agencies schools and universities mental health charities such as Rethink media organisations such as the BBC. Graduates in Psychology from Royal Holloway embark on professional careers as psychologists in various specialist areas, such as: occupational psychology health psychology educational psychology clinical psychology counselling psychology forensic psychology neuroscience. Graduates also venture down a wide range of other career paths, including: management training in industry and the public sector human resources management work in the financial sector management consultancy journalism recruitment consultancy university administration. More graduate profiles are available on our website. Many graduates also decide to further their studies with the department and stay on to study at postgraduate level. 88% of recent graduates from the Department were in employment or further study within six months of graduation. KIS, 2014 Graduate profile Graduate profile Alumna: Subject: Joanna Swiatek Bsc Psychology Graduated: 2010 Place of Work: ETS plc a HR consultancy Position: Psychologist I chose Psychology because I had always been interested in understanding human behaviour and people s motives for doing things. I was impressed with how highly the Psychology course at Royal Holloway was rated; it received really high scores in research, teaching and student satisfaction. The lecturers seemed extremely passionate about sharing their knowledge and experience in managing people s behaviour at work. There was also easy access to London and it had all the university facilities in one place. The College was everything I was looking for. Alumnus: Subject: Graduated: 2004 Alex Jansen Birch BSc Psychology Place of Work: Ipsos MORI Position: Associate Director I knew that Royal Holloway had a very good psychology department and ran one of the best psychology courses in the country. I was always inspired by the lecturers knowledge and how they knew everything about their particular area, I think that s fantastic. I enjoy coming back to give career talks to current students. It is good to give something back. When I was giving my last talk, there was such a diverse range of alumni who had gone on to do so many different things with their degrees. 12

13 We endeavour to help students to recognise their own strengths, skills and abilities so that they can make strong applications for their chosen job or training course. We run a series of lunchtime careers seminars in which Psychology graduates in a wide range of jobs tell students about their chosen career, their day-to-day work and the route for entry to that career. Some speakers are Royal Holloway Psychology graduates. All have up-to-date knowledge, experience and information to share. Speakers also include a representative of the College s Careers Service, who discusses transferable skills and their application to different careers. The Psychology dedicated careers advisor also provides advice on CV writing, completing application forms and preparing for an interview. Once a year, we hold a popular networking event at which our final year students meet some of our recent and not-sorecent graduates, to discuss their developing career paths. How marketable is our Psychology degree? Our Psychology graduates leave with a portfolio of transferable skills which employers in all sectors look for. These abilities include: survey design and interpretation organising large quantities of information logically analysing and interpreting numerical data insight into human behaviour critical reading challenging established views communicating complex detail succinctly conducting ethical research and managing research projects speaking to a group and expressing ideas coherently The College Careers Service As part of The Careers Group, University of London, the College Careers Service is able to provide a wealth of advice and information about local, national and international opportunities. All students have access to the Royal Holloway Careers Service webpages, which are full of up-to-date information and opportunities, with links to other useful resources. Students are reminded of forthcoming careers events through the College system. Such events include talks, job fairs and recruitment rounds by large organisations. Any student can talk to a careers adviser, or can drop in to consult the comprehensive library of careers information. Careers support from the A Psychology degree from Royal Holloway can lead into many different career paths and the Department takes the employability of our graduates very seriously. We therefore provide our students with careers information and advice during their degree programme via a dedicated online forum and website. We seek to make connections with local organisations and set up placement opportunities each year to enable students to gain valuable work experience. We also have opportunities for students to work in our research labs. Placements are also recognised by the College as part of the co-curricular Passport Scheme. Experience research through a lab placement in the Rachael Lickley, Undergraduate student Completed a summer placement with Dr Catherine Sebastian, funded by the Wellcome Trust I thoroughly enjoyed my summer placement at Royal Holloway. I got hands-on experience working in a research environment, and gained valuable skills such as fmri imaging and data analysis. Most importantly, I gained the confidence to use my own intuition and pursue a career in research. I have recently been offered a full-time research assistant role at University College London. I believe I would not have been as competitive for this position had I not had the opportunity to gain research experience during my degree. 13

14 Other information Information services The Department has its own computer hub and photocopying facilities for student use. There are extensive computer labs with a wide range of up-to-date software. The College library is also extensively stocked with Psychology books and journals. Postgraduate opportunities We have a lively community of PhD students working in many different areas of Psychology, all of whom benefit from the extensive supervisory expertise of our academic staff. The department also offers postgraduate opportunities in the form of an MSc in Applied Social Psychology, with a Masters in Forensic Psychology due to come on stream in the next two years. We also offer a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, approved by the British Psychological Society. Such a qualification is the first step to a career as a Clinical Psychologist.
