Course summary

Why choose this course

Study on an interdisciplinary course that focuses on behaviour change and its relevance across a range of fields, including psychology, sociology, business studies and computer science.
Learn from experts across our three faculties and in our research and innovation institutes to gain a well-rounded understanding of behaviour change science and practice in real-world settings.
Equip yourself with the tools to apply behavioural science to address global challenges such as sustainability, climate action, digital innovation, health and social justice through the lens of human behaviour.

What you will study

You’ll study a series of modules outlining and applying diverse perspectives on why people behave in the way that they do, and offering theory- and evidence-based solutions for supporting people to change their behaviours in a way that benefits them and broader society.

You will study topics that cover multiple perspectives and frameworks within the behavioural sciences, including social, clinical and health psychology, philosophy, politics, architecture and planning, sociology, and computer science.

You will apply the theories, principles and methods you learn to a range of areas, including behaviours relating to physical and mental health and wellbeing, sustainability and the environment, occupational behaviours, policymaking, digital technology, and consumer behaviour.

Our Behaviour Change Research and Practice Project module, which spans both semesters, gives you the opportunity to develop and apply your behaviour change skills and knowledge to address a real-world problem. This module allows you to either undertake a traditional dissertation-style research project or conduct and reflect on your experiences of applying behavioural science principles in a more applied setting (e.g. in local organisations).
