This course enables students to move on to a wide range of careers or pursue further training to become a professional psychologist. Students will be able to pick modules that suit their specific interests, including a range of modules from other subjects. Should they wish to study abroad, students can study at a partner institution for a term during their final year.

The first year of the course will introduce students to the concepts required for British Psychological Society (BPS) qualification, including cognition, neuroscience, development, personality and social psychology. Students will then cover these subjects in far greater depth during the second year. In the final year of the degree students can develop their knowledge by exploring the areas that interest them most. The vast majority of modules in this year are optional and are regularly revised in order to incorporate the latest developments in psychology. Recent modules have included subjects such as autistic spectrum conditions, behavioural economics, nutritional psychology, and cognitive behavioural theory and therapy.
