Course summary
The first year of the programme is delivered at Salford City College FutureSkills campus, the final two years are delivered at the University of Salford. Psychology is about people - the study of the human mind and behaviour. As such psychology graduates are well sought after in many workplaces. This course is designed to provide you with in-depth knowledge and opportunities for learning a wide range of psychological concepts. It has a hands-on approach to developing research skills and encourages you to apply the theory to real-world settings. The final year gives you the opportunity to specialise in areas of psychology that interest you and to undertake a supervised research project of your own. Our Psychology course is accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS) – if you achieve a lower second class degree or above, Graduate Basis for Registration is awarded. This is the first step to becoming a chartered psychologist.
