Entry requirements

For international students

· BSc or BA in Psychology with a 2.2 or above

· BSc or BA in a closely related discipline (e.g., health, social, community care) with a 2.2 or above and/ or relevant work experience

· You are not required to hold Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) with the British Psychological Society (BPS) to apply for this MSc.

The BPS require Forensic Psychologists to hold GBC. Therefore, if you wish to become a Forensic Psychologist in future and you do not currently have GBC, upon completing this course you will need to undertake a BPS accredited MSc conversion course to gain GBC. This will make you eligible to undertake the doctoral level qualification (stage 2) in Forensic Psychology. If you have successfully completed a BPS accredited undergraduate degree in Psychology, it is likely that you already hold GBC.

*There may be different IELTS requirements depending on your chosen course.
