The BSc (Hons) Psychology at Heriot-Watt University Malaysia is a three-year full-time undergraduate degree that provides students with a comprehensive and scientific understanding of human behaviour, mental processes and the complex relationship between mind and action, preparing graduates for diverse roles across clinical, organisational, educational and research environments. The programme covers core psychological domains including biological, cognitive, developmental and social psychology, individual differences and research methods, emphasising the application of psychological theory to real-world issues while enhancing transferable skills such as critical thinking, communication, teamwork and numerical literacy through practical assessments, project work and laboratory-based learning.
