ABOUT
Course overview
Study level: Postgraduate
Accredited1 by the British Psychological Society (BPS), this is a specialist conversion course designed for non-Psychology graduates who wish to pursue a career as a psychologist.
Studied 100% online, you’ll gain a thorough grounding in core psychological theories and research methodologies, as well as their origins, history and development.
- It confers eligibility for students to apply for Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) with the British Psychological Society (BPS), which is the first step towards becoming a Chartered Psychologist.
- You will have the opportunity to build the knowledge and skills necessary to fully appreciate the depth and breadth essential to the study of psychology, encompassing traditional and contemporary psychological models, theories and methodologies.
- We place a significant emphasis on professional research methods, developing your knowledge and skills in planning, carrying out, analysing and writing about research in applied psychology.
Why you should study this course
On this 100% online course, you’ll have the opportunity to gain an insight into behaviour from a variety of perspectives in the core fields of: cognitive psychology; developmental psychology; history and philosophy of psychology; individual differences; psychobiology; and social psychology.
Our innovative teaching and learning aims to incorporate numerous active learning methods to encourage your participation and deepen your understanding of specific subjects. Some of the specialist modules allow us to look at how psychology is applied in specific contexts. For example, the ‘Applied Psychology’ module considers its impact within the modern-day world – in counselling, clinical, forensic, educational, sport, work and health psychology. 100% of students found our Psychology courses intellectually stimulating in the Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey (PTES) 2020.
You’ll gain a sophisticated awareness of problems, issues and ethics in applied research in psychology, such as evaluating a counselling intervention to target victims of domestic violence or considering whether it is acceptable to deceive participants. You will also have the chance to conduct a number of practical research exercises and will produce an extensive piece of independent research on a topic of your choice (pending ethical approval) – anything from understanding the variables that influence attribution of blame towards rape victims to the pre- and post- entry barriers to disabled individuals obtaining senior management positions.
Throughout the course there is an emphasis on developing transferrable skills, such as IT, online group work, communication, report writing, numeracy and presentation skills.
You’ll be taught by our highly respected and experienced course team who have links to professional practice and are actively engaged in research. Many of them have had their teaching excellence recognised as Associate Fellows, Fellows or Senior Fellows of the Higher Education Academy (HEA) (staff subject to change).
