Master of Science [M.Sc] [Human Resources and International Management] From University of Strathclyde

We are continually making decisions and performing actions that are driven by our sense organs. Our perception of the world is not just sensory information Ð itÕs an interpretation based on what our brain expects, as well as what itÕs being told by our sense organs. These perceptual processes interact in complex ways to support our behaviours and enable our actions.

This Masters introduces you to the main methods of measuring perception and encourages you to consider their strengths and weaknesses. YouÕll receive broad training in psychological methods, as well as developing an understanding of perceptual experience and the basic framework for measuring perceptually guided actions in a bias-free way. YouÕll also gain practical experience in measuring perception and action through a research project and the opportunity of a placement in a laboratory setting.

YouÕll be based in a dedicated MSc office, or within an appropriate research group, and allocated a peer mentor. YouÕll also have an academic supervisor in psychology who supports and guides your development, including the research dissertation project. WeÕre here to encourage you to make the transition to become a fully independent research scientist.
