Your mind is the most complicated and intricate piece of the universe that humans currently know about, the rules that govern it are mysterious and elusive. Maybe our brains are not complex enough to understand themselves, but that’s not going to stop us from trying! The study of the human mind has intrigued and captivated us for centuries. The brain is the most complex creation in the known universe and unpicking its inner workings can be fascinating and compelling. Have you ever thought about why and how we remember? Well, just by asking that very question, you are beginning on the road in to Psychology. Psychology can be a useful and pragmatic addition to many other courses and jobs, giving you that extra understanding and compassion for people around you. Throughout the course there are ‘real life’ applications of the theories, which are included to help your understanding and aid learning.
