For anyone interested in studying Psychology as an undergraduate, this insightful two-week summer programme will provide a solid grounding in the key debates and theorists within this vast discipline. Participants learn in small groups with expert tutors, who will help them develop the key knowledge that will enable them to analyse and understand the depths of human behaviour.
Additionally, they will begin to understand how Psychology works in practice, and the varying applications this subject offers its students. At a time when mental health is a key priority globally, and businesses are focusing on staff wellbeing like never before, participants will discover the breadth of career options available to those who possess psychological knowledge.
The Psychology summer programme at Immerse is also geared towards challenging participants studying A levels beyond what they have seen in secondary school. While some students may have been introduced to some psychological principles, many may not have encountered the subject in depth before. By introducing participants to the importance of understanding and reading human behaviour, as well and the practical applications of psychological research on today’s society, they have the opportunity to discover a world of knowledge which they may have been unaware of, and hopefully develop a passion for the multi-faceted and widely applied subject.
At the end of the two-week summer programme, participants will return home equipped with a rich understanding of psychological principles, practise and applications. Participants will feel confident and prepared to tackle their university studies with confidence. Subsequently, they will have gained invaluable transferable skills such as critical analysis, research skills and a complex understanding of the roots and causes of human behaviour. Understanding the human mind is an invaluable skill for university life and beyond, and one we endeavour to transfer to our Psychology students.
