Behavioural sciences at Kingston
Your psychology studies are supported by purpose-built research laboratories and psychological analysis equipment including eye trackers, a driving simulator, EEG (recording brain activity) and specialist survey software.
Sociology students are taught in a vibrant department with student conferences and research seminars, and you'll take your learning out of the classroom, broadening your experience of work environments and cultural spaces through museums and galleries.
