Profile
Develop numeracy, analytic and problem-solving skills to further the scientific study of the human mind and behaviour. The BSc in Psychology and Mathematics is the first course in Ireland to integrate these subjects for students interested in a career that combines the interpretation of human behaviour with high-level numeracy, analytical and problem-solving skills.DCU is uniquely positioned to offer this course, building on core strengths in both disciplines. ‘Psychology’ is concerned with all aspects of behaviour, including the thoughts, feelings and motivations underlying such behaviour. While psychologists differ in their interests within the field of psychology and in the type of work that they do, they all approach the study of psychology in a scientific way. ‘Mathematics’ is key to understanding the modern world and mathematical training develops both specific numeracy skills and broad analytical expertise, which are valued in many professions. The course provides the opportunity to gain in-depth knowledge and understanding of each discipline alongside a broad critical perspective on key areas of contemporary society. It is designed to develop a diverse set of transferable skills including an understanding of human behaviour, critical thinking, problem-solving, research methods, communication, and the ability to disseminate findings to varied audiences; skills increasingly demanded by national and international employers. This course is for you if you have an interest in human behaviour and an aptitude for high-level mathematics and scientific inquiry. You should possess very good verbal, written and interpersonal skills, be flexible, hard-working, and creative, with an inquiring mind and the ability to think critically.
