MSc in Cognitive Psychology/Neuropsychology

Programme Director: Professor Bob Johnston

 

Introduction

Cognitive psychology and neuropsychology bring together a range of different theoretical frameworks. Cognitive psychological, neuropsychological, neurobiological and computer science approaches can be combined in order to understand how the human mind/brain solves a variety of complex problems, such as recognizing objects, remembering previous experiences, reading, speaking, and reasoning. The MSc programme will provide an overview and critical evaluation of the major issues, investigative strategies, and empirical findings of recent attempts to integrate these different approaches to 'brain cognition'. We believe Kent offers a distinctive and attractive programme.

Jumana AhmadStudying Cognitive Neuropsychology here at the University of Kent has exceeded all my expectations. It has been a fantastic opportunity, allowing me to learn new research skills and study current research as part of an energetic, enthusiastic and supportive department. The experience has been invaluable - so much so, that I am coming back to start my PhD in September.
