Dear all, I’d like to announce a new Masters program at Stirling: Research Methods in Psychology of Faces.  This is a one year MSc forming a specialised stream of our existing Psychological Research Methods course.  It will cover most aspects of the psychology of faces, from low level visual processing to expression and gaze perception, social cognition, facial composite systems, face recognition and matching.  Students will be expected to take part in face group research meetings and will have opportunities to use the laboratory equipment which includes an eye-tracker and a 3D face camera.  The course also covers more general aspects of psychology research: advanced statistics, research methods and key skills, together with a placement in a research laboratory.
