Social Work & Psychology BSc Psychology. “Studying psychology has taught me a lot about myself, as well as the people around me. It was a stimulating and engaging programme and modules in child observation and developmental psychology have equipped me well for my career as a teacher. " - Joanna Lilley, BSc Psychology graduate Course Detail The BSc Psychology degree, accredited by the British Psychological Society, provides a rigorous approach to psychology, complemented by social and applied perspectives on human behaviour and experience. The degree programme has a central core of psychology, giving you exposure to a range of theoretical ideas and research evidence from a variety of fields, including: · developmental psychology · social psychology · cognitive psychology · biological psychology · the study of personality and individual differences. Our approach reflects the growing consensus within the field that human behaviour is best understood as the interaction of nature and nurture, biology and culture, and genes and environment.
