Undergraduate Second Year
I wish you all a very warm welcome to Level 2 of your Psychology degree at Queen’s University Belfast. I hope that this fresh year brings new possibilities and another chance to learn and discover the potential within you. This is an exciting stage in your academic journey, where you will build upon the foundation laid in your first year and explore further into the fascinating field of Psychology. As you embark on this new chapter, you will encounter more specialised subjects and opportunities to enhance your knowledge and skills. This is also the time to practice more research and develop employability skills that will enrich your learning and provide a clearer picture of potential career paths in psychology. One of the many advantages of being part of a university is the opportunity to meet and form lifelong friendships. I hope you are excited to connect with your fellow students and lecturers.
We are thrilled to be part of your academic journey toward realising your dreams, and remember we are here to support you every step of the way. I wish you all the very best and look forward to seeing you all at induction.
