Course summary
Overview
Our Developmental Science Master’s programme offers deep insights into developmental psychology. You'll learn from one of the largest groups of developmental psychologists in the UK.
The MSc combines research methods training with holistic in-depth study of the subject. You'll learn key research methods, including eye-tracking, EEG, NIRS, and other techniques for studying infants and children. Facilities include the state-of-the-art Developmental Dynamics laboratory.
A key strength of the programme is its hands-on experience with modern psychological research methods. This includes a research placement. Both help you gain skills for your research and employment goals. The course leads to a substantial Master’s research project. You’ll work on this with support from active researchers.
This course is perfect for top graduates in psychology or related fields. These include medicine, neuroscience, and biological sciences. Take a look at the School of Psychology’s webpage to find a researcher who works on a topic that interests you. This is great preparation for a PhD in developmental or educational psychology. It can also lead to a research-related career. Possibilities include work in national government, development organisations, or data management and processing.

POWERED BY 
Before starting my PhD I was working in the museum sector, in collections management. I am passionate about heritage and culture, and after graduating I would like to go back to this field. Alexandra
University of East Anglia UEADramaHi, I'm Alexandra and I'm a 2nd year Drama and Creative Writing undergraduate student at UEA. I'm Spanish/Bolivian but have lived most of my life in Bolivia. As someone with a passion for stage and screen, I chose the Drama and Creative Writing course at UEA to develop and acquire more skills that would allow me to succeed in my career path. I am particularly passionate about scriptwriting, acting and filmmaking, so in the future, I hope I can dedicate myself to all of them. I was previously studying graphic design in Bolivia, but I decided to apply to UEA to pursue my goals; however, I still dedicate some time to it because I love it. I also enjoy photography (especially nature photography), drawing and painting, writing and dancing. Alena

University of East Anglia UEAMedicineI enjoy developing myself as a student, learning new skills and interacting with people. A favorite pastime of mine is reading, especially thrillers but I'm open to other genres as well. I'm originally from India, specifically from Lucknow, the city of Nawabs (and Tunday kababs), and relish trying new foods and connecting with people from different cultures through their traditions :) Having grown up in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, that is the place I call home. The links I have to all these different places has given me a broader worldview, and allowed me to experience life from a different lens. Amelia
