Curriculum
This three-year, full-time degree course will give you a foundation in the theory of clinical and community psychology as well as hands-on experience. If you’re interested in working in the field of mental health, or in initiating sustainable change in vulnerable and marginalised communities, this is for you.
Unusually for an undergraduate psychology degree, you’ll be introduced to psychopathology and approaches to people in mental distress in your first year. You’ll study mental health problems such as anxiety, schizophrenia, eating disorders and bipolar disorder. There are also options to study the psychology of drug addiction and crime.
We’ll introduce you to community psychology with a critical edge that is political in the broadest sense. You’ll look at how issues such as poverty, opportunity, education, employment and housing impact on a person’s ability to negotiate the world.
From the moment you join us you’ll have opportunities to put theory into practice through placements within the local community, working within voluntary projects or the NHS.
You’ll also learn how to gather, analyse and write up evidence-based practice research, a vital skill in many fields of work.
