Becoming a psychologist

British Psychological Society (BPS) accreditation is in progress for this new course and will be in place before it begins in September 2026.

The British Psychological Society (BPS) is the UK’s independent regulator of the psychology profession. Our Psychology degree follows the BPS curriculum which means the content of your course prepares you for entry to the profession and for Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) of the BPS.

Graduate Basis is the first step in becoming a Chartered Psychologist and enables you to begin further training and to become, for example, a forensic, educational or occupational psychologist.
