Course summary

Our BSc (Hons) Psychology course has been accredited by The British Psychological Society. Psychology at the University of Suffolk explores and examines the interaction between mind and behaviour, the nature of the unconscious, the functioning of memory, individual behaviour in social situations, prejudice and altruism. This equips students with a thorough grounding in each of the major fields: social psychology; developmental psychology; biological psychology; and cognitive psychology. Psychology graduates are good at problem solving, have good analytical and research skills, and have excellent information and data management skills. Employability is taken very seriously at University of Suffolk and employers are directly involved in a number of taught and additional sessions over the course of the degree. We have excellent links with Suffolk Constabulary, local magistrates, the Crown Prosecution Service and the probation service.
