What is BSc Developmental Psychology?
You’ll explore how babies and children develop thinking, language, memory and social-emotional skills, and how early experiences shape learning and wellbeing.
You’ll study both neurotypical and neurodivergent development, including autism and ADHD, and explore the factors that influence development across the lifespan. You’ll also learn research techniques used to study development at different stages.
Our course is flexible, so you can switch to another specialised psychology route or to BSc Psychology before the end of year two. In year one, you can also switch to the Year Abroad or Placement degrees, subject to availability and academic requirements.
You’ll learn from expert developmental psychology researchers whose work shapes what you study. Through lectures, small-group teaching, and guidance from your academic adviser, you’ll build confidence as an independent thinker. You’ll develop strong communication skills and learn how to apply psychological knowledge to real-world questions.
Beyond the classroom, you can get involved in research, volunteering, internships, and student societies such as PsySoc. UEA is an inclusive and vibrant community, offering so much more than academic studies.
