From Behavioral Labs to Libraries

As a postgraduate student, you will have access to specialist teaching and research facilities, working alongside established researchers in your chosen field.

You will be taught in our newly refurbished lecture theatres and can make use of our modern computer labs for your studies. Within the Department of Biological and Experimental Psychology at Queen Mary’s Mile End campus you will have access to an Electroencephalography (EEG) lab, a purpose-built facility designed for the use of researchers exploring cortical brain potentials and cognition. Then there’s the Behavioural Lab, Female student sitting at Macwhere computer-based experiments are run using psychological software tools such as E-Prime 2.0 and Psychtoolbox for Matlab.

When it comes to study space, you’ll have plenty of options – Queen Mary has three libraries across its four London campuses. The largest is located at Mile End, where you’ll be based the majority of the time, and is open 24/7 during the academic year.  The Mile End library has a mix of group study and individual study areas, as well as PC rooms and contemplation spaces.  It offers a range of services, including free laptop loans and secure charging boxes.

In addition, our G.E. Fogg building, the home of our biosciences and psychology students, recently underwent a £4.5 million refurbishment.
