    Course Summary

    Studying Psychology is in essence studying the human mind itself. You’ll explore the key processes behind the way people think, learn and feel, and the mechanisms by which we understand and adapt to changing social situations. You’ll investigate human behaviour from birth to old age, and look at all of the social, biological and idiosyncratic factors which make us do what we do at different times in our lives and in different situations.

    There is a strong core curriculum, but also access to a wide range of elective modules. This allows you to customise your degree program to suit your own interests and to comply with your most desired career path.

    This is among the top 200 Psychology programs in the world, according to the QS World University Rankings. By the time you graduate, you’ll be eligible for Graduate Basis Chartered Membership to the British Psychological Society, one of the premier professional bodies in the discipline.

Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.
