Psychology BSc (Hons)

This degree will open up a wide range of careers. You could go on to become a psychologist, or specialise in areas like health, educational or forensic psychology. You’ll be able to join the British Psychological Society if you graduate with at least a second-class honours degree.

The skills you’ll learn are highly transferable, so you won’t be limited in your choices. The ability to write well, analyse data and understand human behaviour will prepare you for whichever career path you choose.

Graduation doesn’t need to be the end of your time with us. If you’d like to continue your studies we offer a wide range of full-time and part-time postgraduate courses including Masters in Foundations in Clinical Psychology, Clinical Child Psychology, Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience and Research Methods in Psychology.

Our staff are actively engaged in research, and they’ll support you all the way. Plus, there’s the opportunity to go to extra-curricular weekly seminars, which feature guest presentations from specialist academics and researchers.
