Year One: Integrated foundation

The underlying aim of the first year is to provide a challenging yet enjoyable overview of many aspects of psychology and gradually introducing theoretical, methodological and practical elements. This provides students with the basic tools and understanding required for the subsequent years of the degree.

Holistic Approach to Psychology

Students will also cover applied psychologies, statistics, research methods and topics drawn from counselling and psychotherapy. This provides a holistic approach to psychology - rather than focusing on one particular area of school of thought.

Time is given to essential study skills, supervised study and the potential to explore topics in a freer non-pressured environment within group tutorials.

As a student centred course, all students are offered pastoral support from a personal tutor as well as the opportunity to contact individual academics.

With an innovative and wide ranging syllabus and small class sizes the programme aims to attract a diverse student body from varying backgrounds and levels of experience.

The school facilitates and nurtures an atmosphere of intrinsic motivation, mutual understanding and support within a professional and responsible environment.
