What will I learn?

Psychology gives us the tools to investigate and understand human thought, action and behaviour. Combining a scientific approach, with the ability to think creatively, it's a subject that builds psychological literacy and strong practical skills that are essential for success in the workplace. Psychology graduates now work in every area of society, using their numeracy, IT literacy, communication and problem-solving capabilities to add value in their professions. BSc(Hons) Psychology is accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS), so you'll have the opportunity to obtain the Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) alongside your degree. That's the initial recognised standard you need to become a practising psychologist.
