Course overview
Neuroscience in psychology introduces students to the biological foundations of mental processes and behaviour. The course covers the structure and function of neurons, synaptic transmission, and the organisation of the central and peripheral nervous systems. Students will study brain regions involved in sensation, perception, memory, emotion, and decision-making, alongside modern techniques such as neuroimaging and electrophysiology. The role of genetics, hormones, and neuroplasticity in shaping behaviour is also examined. By linking biology with psychology, learners gain a deeper understanding of how the brain drives human experience and mental health.
