Courses
If you are considering a career in psychology but have a degree in a different subject area, or if you’re a psychology graduate but your degree did not confer eligibility for the Graduate Basis for Registration with the British Psychological Society, then our MSc Psychology (Conversion) can provide the first step towards gaining Chartered Psychologist status.
If you already have the Graduate Basis for Registration with the British Psychological Society, our MSc Health Psychology could be for you.
Alternatively, MSc Psychology in Business provides the opportunity for Psychology graduates, or those from related disciplines, to develop the creativity, innovation and leadership skills needed to thrive in contemporary business environments.
We also offer an MRes Masters by Research or PhD Doctor of Philosophy which enable you to explore a particular aspect of psychology in depth.
