Course summary

On this BSc (Hons) Psychology with Forensic Psychology degree you will study psychological approaches to offending profiling and the links between criminal behaviour and mental health.Your degree will be taught by experts who are carrying out research in their field and who work in professional applied settings. You will investigate different areas by asking why. Why do some people commit such severe acts of violence? And you will also ask how. How can we reduce the risk of people giving false confessions? How do we help eye-witnesses give more accurate testimonies? Developing your research skills is vital too, and we’ll help you explore the latest methodologies. At the same time, you’ll develop career skills in creativity, critical thinking and communication. As you discover what influences thoughts and behaviours in forensic-related settings, you’ll be able to test your skills hands-on. The BSc (Hons) Psychology with Forensic Psychology course includes an option to do a work placement and engage in research work which brings your specialist subject knowledge to life. This course meets the requirements for accreditation with the British Psychological Society (BPS) and is subject to approval.
