Extended Essay in Psychology

Module code: PSY606

Credits: 15.0
Semester: YEAR

Contact: Dr Stephanie Echols

The extended essay is intended to give you an opportunity to study in-depth a topic of particular interest to you within the subject of Psychology. The essay will not entail you conducting empirical research.
You can choose to do the Extended Essay rather than PSY600 Psychology Research Project but will need to take another 15-credit module in your final year. The Extended Essay module is intended to provide an opportunity for you to write substantively, critically and independently about a selected and approved area of Psychology than is possible in a tutorial essay. The work also involves significant evaluation of theoretical issues relevant to the topic under investigation and you are expected to use original research articles. The assessment comprises a substantive written dissertation.
