| Description | Our students come to us from a variety of backgrounds and jobs and with widely differing undergraduate degrees. Psychosocial studies is the study of the relationship between individuals and their social worlds. It’s a cross-disciplinary course united by the belief that, to understand the contemporary human world, we need to use ideas from psychology, psychoanalysis, sociology, literature, history and cultural studies.Individuals are psychologically complex and we focus on the interactions between them and the entwinement of that complexity with the social world.
Are human beings best understood as products of biology and evolution with instincts that can be tamed or liberated within different social contexts? Or do characteristics need to be understood as products of more distinctly human cultural processes that are subject to historical shifts? How do we treat each other? How can we live together and understand each other? We apply these questions to practical applications on a distance-learning course which allows you to study in a way that accommodates your work and family commitments and lets you learn at your own pace. | | |
