Course summary

Psychology is the scientific study of people, the mind and behaviour. The psychology degree that we offer is both academically and practically challenging and provides a substantive foundation of psychological theory and research from a variety of perspectives and approaches. If you are interested in why people think, feel, and behave the way they do then psychology is the degree for you. Our psychology degree is accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS), and students gaining at least a lower 2nd class honours degree will be eligible for Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) with the BPS, a requirement to continue your journey to become a professional Psychologist. Our psychology degree will provide you with a solid grounding in the core areas of psychology and how psychology is applied to real-world problems. Psychology graduates pursue employment in psychological professions or work in a range of careers where an understanding of human behaviour is advantageous.
