Progression Summary
program description
psychology is an exciting subject to study as we are still looking for answers to questions about the human mind and consciousness. at brunel, students will have the chance to immerse themselves in the accepted theories of psychology as well as the latest research that is expanding our knowledge.
this psychology degree is accredited by the british psychological society and can be studied full-time over three years. brunel also offers it as a four year course which is unique in offering two six-month work placements or students can carry out a one year placement within a single environment.
work experience while studying is a great asset, whether students choose to continue their studies in psychology or seek employment. students will know what it’s like to apply their skills in the workplace, which builds confidence and is attractive to employers. recent placements have included the institute of psychiatry, royal free hospital and holloway prison.
the course will help students to develop specific skills and practical methods before allowing them to tailor their studies to their own interests in the final year by selecting modules and writing a dissertation. this prepares students for the more self-directed study of a masters and specialisation in a particular field should they choose to pursue it.
brunel offers access to extensive laboratory and technical facilities including brain imaging facilities (fmri, eeg), psychophysics, and eye tracking. a good understanding of the equipment students may use in their work placement or in research is a useful skill to have for the future.
as an accredited course, students that graduate with a 2:2 grade or higher (including passing their dissertation research project), will be eligible to apply for graduate membership of the british psychological society. membership will be key for those who choose to pursue postgraduate training to become a psychologist.
