Psychology BSc (Hons)

City's Psychology BSc (Hons) is BPS accredited and gives students the opportunity to specialise in one of four areas of Psychology. Students that enter this popular degree can apply to one of our four specialist pathways at the end of their second year, or continue with a regular BSc Psychology degree pathway. This flexibility offers our students unique opportunities to start shaping their CVs as their career aspirations take shape.

The BSc (Hons) Psychology at City encourages analytical and critical thinking while developing an understanding of the complex interactions between the human mind, brain, behaviour and experience.

You will be taught by internationally recognised research-active academics, who will provide a rich curriculum and give you a wide range of experiences and insights across the full range of topics in psychology. The staff will dedicate their time to your development in academic and professional skills and a personal tutor will mentor and support you in achieving your aspirations for the future. The degree will therefore serve as an ideal stepping stone towards your future, whether it be in further education or a professional career.

In addition to dedicated research groupings and specialised laboratories for these main areas of research in the department, we are also home to three specialist Centres that provide a link between our research activities and professional practice and industry.
