About this course

About the course

By studying our Psychology with a Foundation Year degree, you develop a thorough overview of the subject through modules in health and clinical practice as well as organisational, social and applied psychology.

You build essential skills in critical analysis, developing arguments and self-expression, through a dedicated programme of support and development. These skills will be valuable throughout your studies and into your career.

After completing the Foundation Year, you can choose to focus purely on psychology by continuing onto your Psychology BSc, or to study the subject with a minor such as Education, Business and Management or Neuroscience.
