Psychology at MRU and abroad

Lots of young people are dreaming about studying at the university. Some are dreaming about local universities, some about going abroad. Here I am going to compare Mykolas Romeris University (MRU) and University of Liverpool.



University of Liverpool was founded in 1881. Today the University have principal centre of excellence in many disciplines, including engineering, medicine, dentistry, business and law. The University of Liverpool is one ot the most popular higher education institutions in UK.



MRU is a modern and dynamic University seeking to have a well-established position in European hihged education. Today the University have disciplines including law, ecinomics, sociology, information technology.



The first difference I noticed was the number of the years one has to study. In University of Liverpool programme lenght is 3 years., while in MRU it is 4 years of bachelor. But the structure of programme is quite the same. Modules will provide an introduction to the principal methods and content of Psychology, such as Social Psychology, Psychobiology, Personality, Cognitive Development and Abnormal Psychology, before developing into the applications of Psychology as conflict, psychological ilness, drug dependency through to child development and the structure of the brain. The biggest difference I found was the labaratories. Liverpool University students in major final-year have research project, where they are undertaking their own labaratory experiment or field observaion based on their own research questions, whereas MRU students don't have that opportunity.



To sum up, I am convinced that both universities are good and interesting in their own way and it is hard to say which is better and which is worse.
