Facilities
We're based in both the ICOSS building and Cathedral Court. Our facilities include a state-of-the-art computer lab, seminar rooms, tutorial rooms and social spaces.
Practical teaching facilities
We have a suite of newly refurbished testing cubicles where students can use computer stimulus presentation software to run experiments as part of their own mini projects.
In workshops, you'll be trained to use the industry standard statistical analysis software SPSS, and you can get an introduction to computational modelling tools and the programming language Python.
Lecture and tutorial spaces
Lectures take place across the University campus, close to the accommodation and Students' Union.
They are recorded so you can return to them later. You'll have small group teaching sessions in our seminar rooms at ICOSS, so you can look at problems more closely, and there are meeting rooms you can book to work on group projects with other students.
