We're here to make your time studying Psychology as enjoyable as we can, whether that's by advising you academically, providing opportunities to volunteer, by giving you the opportunity to make great friends in our sports teams or – best of all – by helping you let your hair down on our fantastic socials!
In the year 2012-13 we opened the year with a sports themed Freshers Social, which was followed by a Hip-Hop bar crawl and a Hawaiian party later in the year.
We also held a SECRET CITY Christmas Invasion party which began at the Student's Union Bar One before a coach took us to Leeds for an amazing bar crawl!
As a society we have also teamed up with other committees to host joint society events such as 'This is War', 'Geek Chic' and 'Big Fat Social' – all of which are known to be great nights out!
The biggest party of the year however is our holiday – in 2011 we whisked students away to Amsterdam, in 2012 to Paris and in 2013 to Rotterdam! And it's always so much fun!
It's not all alcohol and bar crawls though – we also host a
variety of alcohol free socials throughout the year. In 2012 guest speaker Massimo
Polidoro provided an interesting lecture on investigating paranormal phenomena
and we have regular movie socials with pizza and cakes!
On top of this, every year we hold our *Psychology
Ball* - the perfect opportunity to glam up, crack out your best
suit or dress and have a meal and a dance with friends.
As with every year we plan to make this year the best yet – all we need is you! Whether you're a potential fresher or about to start your final year, we know you will feel the benefits of being a member of our society. Membership is a steal at just £5 for one year or £11 for all three years. It not only gets you discount on tickets to all Psychos socials but also entitles you to a discount card for VODKA REVOLUTION which gives access to 2-4-1 meals and cocktails, amongst many other lovely deals!
Awards and Achievements:
In 2012, the Psychology Society was nominated for Best Departmental Society at the Academic Awards, and Anna
Summersall (Former President) received a nomination for Outstanding Contribution to
Societies
at the Activities Awards!
We're a caring bunch here at Psychos so we also support local charities with fundraising.
