Psychology and Counseling are disciplines that incorporate a great many approaches to the understanding of human behaviour. Your programme combines a broad education in Psychology with a specialist strand that focuses on Counselling skills, theory and practice. Successful completion of the programme confers the Graduate Basis for Chartership with the British Psychology Society, which is an important first step for those who wish to pursue further training in areas such as clinical, counselling, educational, forensic or health psychology.

Some graduates from this subject undertake further academic study often developing specific areas of interest within Psychology or Social Sciences. Students with Psychology majors who seek British Psychological Society (BPS) accreditation are eligible to take a conversion diploma in the United Kingdom after graduation. Postgraduate study and training is essential for those wishing to pursue the Chartered Psychology careers, which include counselling, clinical, organisational, educational and forensic psychology. Our Careers and Employability Service will offer you a range of support both while you are studying with us - and after you have graduated.
