University of York Speciality : Psychology
programme: B.Sc. in Psychology

I am currently a first year Psychology student at the University of York. So far, I have had an amazing experience and have settled into the university life so well. From my first day moving into my flat on campus, I have felt so welcomed and part of the community, particularly due to the STYCs and STYMs who made the move so much easier! The psychology course has been very interesting and has allowed us to gain a broad insight into the many avenues of this subject including ‘Brain and Behaviour’ and ‘Learning and Development’. All of our lecturers have been leaders in their field of research which makes our teaching current, engaging and very insightful. The workload can sometimes get overwhelming but there are so many support options available to you like your academic supervisor or university wide services, which has been very reassuring to know about. I have also been able to create strong friendships through the many societies on offer. Overall, I would recommend the University of York to any student!
