Research in the area of Culture and Evolution focuses on cultural variation in, and evolutionary origins of, psychology and behaviour – integration of proximate and ultimate perspectives, across levels of analysis from individual biology and personality, through group and social processes to the broader culture.
Our research brings together outstanding evolutionary, cross-cultural and other psychologists and will include evolutionary approaches to human psychology such as human behavioural ecology categorized in these three strands:
Relationships – E.g. interpersonal attraction and mate choice, relationship maintenance and satisfaction, jealousy, etc. Also intergroup relations (between cultures and ethnic groups).
Morality – E.g. what is considered right and wrong, political beliefs, views on resource distribution, etc.
Conflict & Cooperation – E.g. interpersonal and intergroup, sexual conflict and intrasexual competition, sources of conflict such as inequality, etc.
We provide students with a unique opportunity to focus on the two most fundamental and powerful influences on human behaviour: evolution and culture. Many programmes emphasise either one or the other of these influences, but the CCE places a special emphasis on the integration of these two levels of analysis. In doing so, we aim to produce the deepest, most thorough, and most useful possible explanations for human behaviour.
Careers and your future
You will receive tailored careers support during your PhD and for up to three years after you complete your research at Brunel.

Our careers provision includes online information and advice, one-to-one consultations and a range of events and workshops. The Professional Development Centre runs a varied programme of careers events throughout the academic year.
