The University of Aberdeen's School of Psychology holds the distinction of being the first in the UK to establish a lectureship in Psychology, a subject taught there for over a century.
The School of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of St Andrews promotes a friendly atmosphere with a thriving community of research staff and postgraduate students, actively engaging with local schools and organizations.
Our structure helps ensure smooth research pathways - from pure discovery science through to clinical application and patient care. The integration of discovery biology, clinical application and patient care within a single Faculty, particularly in a region with notable health inequality, provides us with a real opportunity to have a very significant and positive impact on people's lives.
The Faculty of Psychology was founded in 2003 and has since established itself as a nationally and internationally visible and successful institution in research and studies.
