Overview
The Psychology program offered by University of Huddersfield has been specifically designed for graduates of any discipline and those who have previously studied some psychology in their undergraduate degree, which was not a course accredited by the BPS. Successful completion of the course currently leads to a qualification that confers eligibility for Graduate Basis for Chartered membership (GBC) with the BPS. For those who wish to undertake professional training in psychology, the GBC allows application for entry on to all accredited postgraduate courses with the BPS.
The course critically assesses the contribution of psychology to contemporary society. You will be taught by a team with research interests in applied psychology across six major content areas; Cognitive Psychology, Developmental Psychology, Social Psychology, Psychobiology, Individual Differences and Conceptual and Historical Issues.
You will also have the opportunity to undertake training in research methods and data analysis, plus the chance to carry out your own research project, supported by a subject matter expert.
Career support
Upon successful completion this course currently provides you with the opportunity to gain eligibility to apply for GBC, enabling you to apply for professional training in psychology. This also provides the opportunity for you to undertake modules through which you can gain an insight into various professional routes in psychology. These include health psychology, educational psychology and forensic psychology.
