Psychological and Behavioural Sciences (PBS) at Cambridge gives you the opportunity to study cognitive, social, developmental and biological psychology within the broader context of the behavioural sciences. The course covers, for example, cognitive psychology, psychopathology, language, brain mechanisms, family relationships and influences, personality, statistics and data-science, and group social behaviour. A wide range of options enable you to study the topics that interest you most in greater depth.
Information about the course structure, departmental teaching arrangements, offered topics and options can be found on the University of Cambridge website: PBS Course Outline
The three eight-week terms of the first year revolve around lectures, supervisions and written work. Within PBS, in later years the amount of practical work increases to include the undergraduate’s chosen research project in the third year.
The students are welcoming and friendly while the College is full of beautiful places to study. Jane Garrison, Director of Studies, is so supportive, kind, and encouraging, making Queens’ College a wonderful environment to study PBS.
