Course content

Psychology gives us valuable insight into many areas of life — from human behaviour in the classroom or courtroom to animal cognition and natural selection. This BPS accredited Masters is designed for students who have undertaken a degree in another subject and are interested in getting a qualification in psychology.

  • No prior psychology undergraduate degree needed
  • Learn from experts in the field who take a rigorous, biological approach to psychology, studying it as a natural and experimental science
  • Receive hands-on training across a wide range of research methods (including qualitative methods) and the opportunity to apply these methods through empirical studies in either laboratory or naturalistic settings
  • Benefit from state-of-the-art facilities, including the Electroencephalography (EEG) Lab and the Behavioural Lab, where computer-based experiments can be run using various psychological software tools
  • Excellent employment prospects with students progressing onto research PhDs, further studies for pathways into clinical training, forensic psychology, organisational psychology and careers in social work, coaching or education
