Our Psychology degree offers a clear and critical understanding of how psychology helps us grasp important 21st-century issues. You will gain scientific training and quantitative skills to study the mind and behaviour while also developing strong, transferable skills. These skills are essential for further study or entering the workforce.

What sets our programme apart is the blend of practical skill development with theoretical knowledge. This approach ensures that you not only understand psychological processes but can also apply this knowledge in real-world situations. You will study social psychology, developmental psychology, biological psychology, and cognitive psychology. This comprehensive coverage aligns with the standards of a British Psychological Society (BPS) accredited course, ensuring you receive a high-quality education recognised across the field.

In addition to these core areas, you will explore individual differences, research methods, and conceptual and historical issues. Our modules are designed to equip you with strong real-world skills that go beyond the basics of a typical undergraduate psychology course.

One unique aspect of our programme is its emphasis on developing students as scientifically literate psychological scientists. This means you’ll learn to think critically and scientifically about human behaviour analysis. Our dedicated psychology staff are committed to close-up teaching and learning, offering you personal attention that is often not possible at larger institutions.

As you progress through the course, particularly in your final year, you will have the freedom to choose from a variety of modules. This allows you to tailor your degree to match your specific interests, whether that be in clinical psychology, forensic psychology, or any other area within traditional psychology careers.

Our aim is to provide a robust understanding of psychological processes, including reasoning, memory, and language. You will also gain insight into neuro-scientific processes and their impact on health-related behaviour. By the end of the course, you will be well-prepared for a range of careers in professions or for further study.
