Our BSc Psychology trains students in the theories, methods and application of contemporary psychological science. The degree is accredited by the British Psychological Society.

You will learn about social, cognitive, developmental, biological and individual differences psychology, as well as your choice of a range of more specialised topic areas (for example addictive behaviours, climate and behaviour change, cognitive neuroscience). You will develop an in-depth understanding of the research that underpins psychological theories in these domains. You will learn about the application of psychological theories and methods to effect change in the real world.

We will equip you with the skills to design research studies and analyse data, to provide evidence-based answers to psychological research questions. The knowledge and skills you acquire culminate in your final year project, in which you will complete a substantial piece of original psychological research.

Teaching is undertaken by internationally renowned academics. We use a variety of teaching methods (for example: lectures, seminars, tutorials, laboratory classes, group work) and assessment formats (for example: essays, research reports, in-class presentations, examinations). This variety of learning experiences caters for variations in students' learning styles. In addition to subject-specific knowledge and skills, you will develop transferable skills, such as teamwork, critical thinking, psychological and scientific literacy, research skills, and oral and written communication skills (including the skills involved in presenting to an audience). These skills are highly valued by employers across a wide range of industries. They will also prepare you for postgraduate study in psychology and beyond.
