Course content

Join the Kingston School of Law, Social and Behavioural Sciences.

Our degrees are underpinned by a vibrant research culture and delivered by a blend of practitioners and academics who are dedicated to equipping you with the employability skills to thrive in your career. You will have a wealth of opportunities outside the classroom to further your learning and gain hands-on experience in your chosen field.

Whether you have an undergraduate degree in an unrelated discipline, or completed an undergraduate degree in psychology that’s not accredited by the BPS, this course will provide your first step towards a career as a chartered psychologist. You will benefit from a research active department; our psychology team conducts internationally excellent research and has links with universities across the USA and Europe. You will also be able to hear from eminent psychologists who regularly present their findings at Kingston University.

For example, you will have the opportunity to research an area of interest in your final research project. In addition, you will choose an optional module from a variety of psychology specialisms, or the work experience module which will enable you to gain practical skills in the field. Current students have had placements in nurseries, schools, mental health services, play therapy and charities for people with disabilities.
