Psychology explores the causes and forms that behaviour takes. It looks at what it is to be human and tries to find explanations for why we behave in the way that we do. We look at factors that impact the way we see and respond to the world, why we choose to act some ways and not others. It explores the extent to which we are free to make decisions and investigates how much of our lives may already be predetermined.

Psychology is fundamentally a course that will change the way you think about and perceive the world around you, and this is why it is such an important course to study at this point in your developing lives.
