This three-year Psychology BSc Honours degree will give you a head start in your professional career. With a unique range of professional pathways and hands-on learning, you're able to shape your undergraduate degree. You will also have the opportunity to complete a placement or study abroad year. You can apply for this after you have completed your first year.


Your teaching will be informed by internationally recognised research, much of which is delivered in the purpose-built, state-of-the-art Dame Margaret Barbour building where facilities include:


  • a forensic interviewing suite
  • a cognition and behaviour lab
  • a nutrition and food preference unit
  • medical consultation rooms
  • psychological testing cubicles

You'll initially study a broad range of topics. These cover the core areas of psychology such as social psychology, biological psychology, research methods, individual differences, cognitive psychology and developmental psychology. As you progress through the degree you will be able to focus more on your specific interests, with optional modules that represent the expertise of our staff.


A degree from the School of Psychology truly provides an education for life. We train our students to think critically about evidence and the world around them. We also train them to be ethical psychologists and ethical citizens.


We provide evidence-based extracurricular opportunities to help students develop personal and professional skills. Our peer-led anti-perfectionism workshops draw on the expertise of our sports psychology team. The aim is to reduce detrimental perfectionistic tendencies in students.


To achieve graduate level skills, our programme will push you beyond your comfort zone as you adapt to new and independent ways of teaching and learning.

If you are interested in studying Psychology within a more interdisciplinary programme, you might consider the BSc in Cognitive Science.
