Clearing - How to apply
What is Clearing?
Each year, universities may have spaces left on their courses after the application window has closed in June.

It also gives you a second chance to go to university if you didn't get the grades you needed for your firm and insurance offers.
How do I get in touch?
Our Clearing entry requirements may differ from those advertised. Please contact our friendly advisers to find out if you’re eligible for a place. You can get in touch through our hotlines:
- For domestic students please call us on 0800 073 5050
- If you’re an International student calling from outside the UK, call: +44 191 222 5000
Not available in Clearing \ \ This course is not available in Clearing 2025. \ \ This means there are no spaces available for Clearing 2025. If you can't find vacancies in your original course or subject area, try exploring other subjects in a related field. \ \ Search our courses in Clearing
[## Undergraduate Open Day
Start your university journey. Find where you belong. Friday, June 26 (9:00-16:00) Saturday, June 27 (9:00-16:00)](https://www.ncl.ac.uk/study/meet/undergraduate-open-day/ )
Course overview
Are you curious about how the human mind functions? Fascinated by how people communicate effectively? Interested in why technologies aren’t always accessible?
Cognitive Science, like psychology, aims to understand the mind's complexities and how the brain's mental processes influence behaviour. It emerged in the 1950s as a response to Behaviourism, which argued that behaviour is shaped by past experiences and conditioning. This theory became difficult to defend, especially for researchers studying language development, which Behaviourism couldn’t explain.
Cognitive Science developed as an interdisciplinary field, bringing together insights from psychologists, linguists, computer scientists, and philosophers. This shift led to key breakthroughs in understanding language, perception, memory, and decision-making.
This degree explores key cognitive functions like perception, attention, memory, and language. You’ll understand the various methods used to explore behaviour and understand the strengths and limitations of different approaches.
By studying modules from across the University, you’ll come to understand:
- The structure and function of the human mind and brain
- The development and evolution of human language and communication
- How AI impacts the way we think and communicate
You’ll graduate with the ability to combine critical thinking and problem-solving skills with the knowledge and understanding to reshape our future.
