All over the world are plenty of universities in which people can study psychology. In some cases these studies are similar, but also the syllabus at our Mykolas Romeris University has some fundamental differences from other universities. I’ll compare our and University of Bradford studies of psychology.
At first, in our University studies continue four year and involve more subjects which are not directly concerned with psychology. In Bradford University people study three year and there aren’t any extra subjects.
Moreover, there are more differences in syllabus than similarities. At our Mykolas Romeris University psychology students encompass much more different subjects, such as Logics, Philosophy, Language of Specialty, Human Anatomy and Physiology. Whereas Bradford students learn fundamental subjects, such as The Psychology of Learning and Study, Cognitive Psychology, Psychobiology and Perception, Social Psychology. Comparing with our university there are similar lectures of Neuropsychology, perception, personality, developmental psychology. Bradford University in the first year gives a foundation in a number of core subjects, and in the second year build upon the foundations that were laid in the first year, by expanding and deepening knowledge of these areas. In the third year Bradford students have to write dissertation and they learn how to do it. Also, they take modules from a range of options, which will reflect the lecturers’ research interests and areas of specialism. Therefore, our University students have to write term papers after forth and sixth semesters and the dissertation only after four year.
In my opinion in our university are too many not very necessary subjects. I think that it will be better to learn only those things which are really essential for our specialty. But if I can choose there I want to study I will pick Mykolas Romeris University.
