Studied: Psychology (A), Biology (A), Chemistry (A)
“My time at Carmel played a major role in me developing the attributes required for studying at postgraduate level. I’m very grateful for the incredible support and encouragement that the college provided.
“I received a First Class degree in BSc Psychology and was presented with a Gold Lancaster Award for achievements in Employability, Campus Activities and Work Experience.
I knew that I wanted to continue my studies in Psychology and aim for a career in research, therefore in my third year, I applied for a fully-funded 4-year studentship with the North West Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership (NWSSDTP).
“I’m delighted to say that I won this studentship! As a result, I’m currently studying for a Master’s Degree in Psychological Research Methods at Lancaster and will complete my PhD here. I’ll be conducting research in the Neuroscience of Speech and Action lab with a focus on cognitive neuroscience. My PhD project will investigate how multisensory integration changes with age and the effects that these changes have on our balancing abilities.”
