In Psychology we describe, explain and predict thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Psychologists carry out research, develop theories and often try to solve practical problems. These three elements all feature strongly in this applied psychology course. Psychology’s intriguing subject matter, blend of specialist knowledge and generic skills provide its graduates with opportunities for personal growth, and many of the characteristics sought by potential employers.
The overarching aim of the course is to provide a stimulating and challenging education in applied psychology. BSc (Hons) Applied Psychology will allow students to learn about psychological theory and research and how this can be applied to the real world. The core psychology curriculum will be contextualised with real-world examples and a suite of applied psychology modules will introduce students to different professions in psychology. This will be beneficial to graduates in seeking employment or higher study after completion of the program. The course also offers a range of psychology modules covering the main areas of the discipline and a range of choice within other complementary disciplines.
To become a Chartered Psychologist, graduates are required to carry out further study and practice in a particular area such as Clinical, Forensic, Health, Educational, Counselling and Sport and Exercise Psychology. The BSc (Hons) Applied Psychology program offers specialism in four of these areas: Counselling, Forensic, Health and Sport and Exercise Psychology. Students can exit with a named award in one of these areas, providing specific modules have been taken.
With a choice of final year options, students have the opportunity to specialise in a preferred area of study. By taking optional modules and undertaking a relevant research project, students can graduate with a BSc (Hons) Applied Psychology (Counselling), a BSc (Hons) Applied Psychology (Forensic), a BSc (Hons) Applied Psychology (Health) or a BSc (Hons) Applied Psychology (Sport and Exercise). There are opportunities to spend a trimester studying abroad and they have the additional option of studying a modern language, biology or social science subject during the program. All program pathways are accredited by the British Psychological Society and meet the requirements for Graduate Level Chartered Membership (GBC) with the Society.
