Course summary

Psychology enables you to study the workings of the human mind and how this is revealed in human behaviour, both consciously and unconsciously. As a psychology student, you will be introduced to psychological theories and will learn to critically evaluate them so that you can reach your own well-informed conclusions about the nature and origins of human and non-human behaviour. Counselling is the process of assisting someone to resolve psychological issues or difficulties, so understanding why humans behave as they do is critical to the efficacy of any intervention.You鈥檒l have access to excellent facilities and equipment. We have recently invested 拢320k in new hardware and software for our psychology laboratories and we also have a laboratory in the new 拢13m state-of-the-art Health and Wellbeing Building officially opened in June 2023.Studying psychology enables you to develop a diverse range of transferable skills which are valued highly by employers. We are proud to be ranked 1st in the UK for graduates in career 15 months after graduation for Psychology (Guardian University 大象传媒, 2023).On this course, you will be equipped with a thorough grounding in each of the major fields in psychology: social psychology; developmental psychology; biological psychology; and cognitive psychology. In addition, you will explore abnormal psychology, contemporary and historic issues in psychology and individual differences. This will be underpinned by thorough training in research methods, both qualitative and quantitative, and exploration of the scientific method. You will be encouraged to evaluate a range of theories and research evidence, helping you to become a critical thinker whilst encouraging you to reach your own informed conclusions. In addition, you will also explore the skills required to be a counsellor, the use of theory in a counselling context, humanistic and psychodynamic perspectives, and will have an introduction to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.This programme is accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS) which means that on successful completion of your degree you will be eligible for graduate based chartership (GBC) of the BPS.
