Course summary
**Summary**: Psychology studies human thoughts, feelings, motivations and behaviour from a range of perspectives using empirical methods. You consider the neurological and cognitive mechanisms that underlie actions and internal mental processes, as well as the social and developmental factors that influence human behaviour.**Course details**: You study how psychology can be applied to a range of settings and topics to inform our understanding of complex issues such as living with mental health conditions, improving education practices, apprehending offenders, improving workplace satisfaction and enhancing athletic performance. Our staff work in clinical practices and provide expertise for organisations including the NHS, the criminal justice system, local charities and businesses – so you are taught topical issues by experts in the field. Your enhanced understanding of interpersonal behaviour and communication leaves you ideally placed for a career in sales, marketing or education. Our emphasis on rigorous research training means you develop excellent research design and analytic skills, prized in professions from accounting to personnel. With British Psychological Society accreditation, you are well placed for further study to become a registered psychologist.**After the course**: Although this is an academic course rather than a professional training course, on successful completion, with a 2.2 or above, you will be eligible to apply for Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) status with the British Psychological Society (www.bps.org.uk).
