Physiological Psychology

Course Code: 
PSYC2003

This course is offered in the second year and seeks to explore how the sensory, neural and muscular systems of the body interact to produce and facilitate behaviour. It also helps students to understand behavioural problems and to appreciate various biologically derived strategies of behaviour modification and control. The course covers such areas as, the body system, the biology of mental processes, motivation and emotion and the future of psychobiology.   Ideally, students are expected to have some foundation in biology as a course pre-requisite.
