Course Overview

This BPS accredited psychology degree takes you on a journey through the fascinating subject of psychology. Using the latest technology you’ll experience a broad, rich and interactive learning experience, with the flexibility to fit study around other commitments.

Psychology affects everything we do and curiosity about people’s thoughts, feelings and behaviour are at the centre of our course. You’ll delve into the science of mind and behaviour, covering the breadth of the discipline, from applied, social and clinical psychology, to cognitive neuroscience and biological psychology. We’ll encourage you to keep asking questions and develop the scientific, analytical and research skills you will need to become a future psychologist.

In designing our distance learning course, we’ve been careful to enable students to benefit from our emphasis on practical and applied work. You will learn how to conduct research, setting up experiments and questionnaires online, collecting data, analysing it, and writing reports to a professional standard. Through our research participation system, you will have the opportunity to act as both a participant in a diverse range of studies and a researcher in your own right.

All BPS-accredited degrees culminate in a final empirical research project and this gives you the opportunity to investigate a question that interests you, with the help of an expert supervisor. This project will give you valuable, cv-enhancing skills such as making an application to a human research ethics panel, designing and implementing empirical research, and analysing and reporting data.
