You must take 4-6 courses from this group. Within your selection, you must include at least one course from each of the following subject areas: Philosophy, Psychology, and Language Sciences.

Planning ahead for Psychology dissertations:

- If you are considering a Psychology dissertation that involves advanced statistical methods and quantitatively demanding Honours courses, you are advised to take Data Analysis for Psychology in R 2 (DAPR2) this year. To enrol in DAPR2, you must have taken DAPR1 or an Informatics course involving coding in Year 1.

- If you do not pass DAPR2 at the first attempt, you will not normally be advised to take DAPR3 in Year 3, or to undertake an advanced statistical dissertation in Year 4.

- If you are considering a Psychology dissertation that involves basic statistical methods and more moderately quantitative Honours courses, you should take DAPR1 if you did not take it in Year 1. If you have already taken DAPR1 in Year 1, taking DAPR2 this year is also recommended. Taking DAPR3 in Year 3 is not required for this pathway.
You may optionally take up to two of these Informatics courses.

Please note that both courses require you to have taken Informatics 1 - Introduction to Computation, and Informatics 1 - Object Oriented Programming in Year 1.
Group A.3:

You may optionally take up to 40 credits of 'outside' courses, which can be from subject areas across the University. Some courses have prerequisites that you will need to meet to take the course.

You may only select Level 7 and 8 courses from Schedules A to Q, S, T, W and Y. Only 40 credits of level 7 courses are permitted across Years 1 and 2 combined.
Challenge Courses are designed to bring together students from different degree programmes to explore the complex issues facing the world today through interdisciplinary collaboration and creative thinking.

Working with each other and expert academics, students will gain new perspectives and develop important life skills highly valued by employers, such as teamwork, problem-solving and adaptability.
