Our BSc (Hons) Psychology degree offers a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of psychological science, and explores how this theory can be applied to real-world issues.

Teaching is influenced by the 'world-leading' and 'internationally excellent' research of our academic staff, who have expertise and professional experience in areas including: eating behaviour, chronic illness, cognitive ageing, parenting and social inclusion, substance abuse, addictive behaviours, behavioural addictions, sleep quality and mental health.

Accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS) you are able to tailor the degree to your interests and career aspirations through a range of optional modules.

The degree provides a foundation for postgraduate study or further professional training for careers in counselling or clinical, educational, occupational, forensic or health psychology.

You can choose to study the degree as a three-year course, or over four years to include a placement or study abroad opportunity. Transfer between the three and four-year psychology course options is normally possible.
