Course Overview

What you'll study?

The course is a specialized variant of our BSc (Hons) Psychology degree, with tailored modules towards an Educational and Developmental Psychology emphasis in Years One and Two and a focus on our psychological development within educational settings and extends to inclusion and support needs in educational institutions in your final year.

Your first two years of your degree are designed to provide you with a thorough grounding in all core areas of psychology. You'll complete an introduction to psychology and core modules in biological, social, developmental and cognitive psychology, as well as undertaking training in research methods and statistics.

You'll also complete bespoke modules that explore the academic and professional context of psychology with a particular focus on this specialism. Further specialisation takes place in the final year where most modules will be related to the specialism. You'll also complete a research project in psychology, focused on a topic of your choosing under the supervision of a research-active member of staff.

You can also take part in the innovative Work Based Psychology Practice module, a unique feature of psychology at NTU. Taking on the role of a consultant psychologist, you will work on real-life problem scenarios supplied by external organisations, and provide evidence-based solutions to these organisations.
