Course summary

Overview

Content for 2024 subject to approval by awarding organisation

The Cert HE in Combined Social & Behavioural Sciences is a 2-year level 4 higher education course which is the equivalent to the first year of an undergraduate degree course. This course is validated by Ulster University. Students study Sociology, Psychology and Quantitative Research Methods in Year 1 and choose whether to follow a Sociology or Psychology path in year 2.

There are no hidden costs re: materials. However, there may be some visits or field trips and students may have to have subsistence costs, i.e. lunch etc on these trips

Career Prospects

Following successful completion of our programme, our students are eligible to apply to Year 2 of a number of Ulster’s BSc Honours Programmes including Psychology, Social Psychology, Sociology, Social Policy and Sociology and Criminology. It is also a stand-alone qualification. Our students may also apply for Year 2 at other universities. However, it is the student’s responsibility to check the admissions policies of individual universities. Students who successfully complete the course may also progress to Further and Higher Education courses within Belfast Met, including HND and Foundation Degree Programmes
