Overview
Areas of study include behavioural neuroscience, developmental psychology, perception and cognition, psychological and brain health, and social psychology.
Features
- The Department of Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford runs a number of seminar programmes and all graduate research students are encouraged to attend talks and presentations relevant to their research interests.
- On completion of the course, students are expected to have an in-depth knowledge of their field of research and to have made a contribution to scholarship in that area. They are also expected to have acquired research skills that will enable them to pursue independent research in psychology.
Programme Structure
Curriculum:
- You will be expected to transfer your status from PRS to DPhil before the end of your fourth term of FTE study. For this, you will be required to submit a written report summarising your progress to date, which you will then discuss and defend in an oral examination (a transfer viva).
- During your third year of FTE study, you will need to confirm your DPhil status through a formal assessment to ensure that you are on course to complete your studies within the three- to four-year time frame.
