Aberystwyth University - New psychology department

A new department of psychology, offering seven joint honours degree schemes from September, has opened at Aberystwyth University. The courses range from psychology and international politics to psychology and English, and a single honours degree is expected to be launched in autumn 2009. Head of department Kathryn Bullen said: "All the courses have been developed to build on the strengths of existing departments and degree systems and integrate psychology with them."
