Undergraduate degrees
Psychologists work in basic and applied research in fields that include education and child development, clinical work, the 
courtroom (acting as expert witnesses), industry (helping to design efficient machines or optimising business organisations), and in universities researching every branch of human behaviour from visual perception to sexuality. This BPS-accredited degree covers all aspects of psychology.
This degree is designed for those considering a career in clinical, forensic, educational psychology and related fields. Students will take the same modules as in BSc Psychology in the first three years, followed by an additional specialist fourth year. One of the key components of the fourth year is a work placement in one of these three areas of applied psychology.
