MPhil in Psychology in Glasgow United Kingdom | University of Glasgow

Our department conducts extensive research across multiple domains including experimental psychology, cognitive neuroscience, linguistics, sensory perception, statistical analysis, psychological research methodologies, social robotics, and health cognition. We maintain significant expertise in neuroimaging and brain stimulation technologies, with research bridging both foundational and clinical neuroscience applications.
Our team currently includes approximately 35 faculty members, 2 distinguished fellows (Marie Curie and Adam Smith award recipients), 20 research associates/assistants, and a vibrant postgraduate community of 60 students encompassing PhD candidates, Master's students, and visiting scholars. Our faculty actively pursue numerous funded research initiatives, securing substantial support from prestigious organizations including the Wellcome Trust, BBSRC, and ESRC. Through varied methodologies and experimental frameworks, our work seeks to deepen knowledge about human behavior, mental processes, and neural mechanisms across different analytical levels.
Research activities are organized within the School of Psychology, the Centre for Social, Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience (cSCAN), and the Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging (CCNi), which offers cutting-edge functional neuroimaging resources. Numerous investigators hold joint appointments connecting the School of Psychology and Neuroscience, spanning two academic colleges (Science & Engineering and Medical, Veterinary & Life Sciences), fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and translational research from molecular to systems neuroscience.
