Overview

Why do people offend? What shapes decision-making under pressure? How do victims respond and what actually helps reduce reoffending? On this British Psychological Society (BPS) accredited degree, you’ll discover the psychology behind criminal behaviour and the justice system, while building the scientific skills to question evidence, challenge assumptions and communicate with care.

You’ll study the full core psychology curriculum needed for professional recognition, with forensic psychology woven throughout, including reflective work that helps you connect theory to real-world questions.

Along the way, you’ll learn with researchers and practitioners in a multi-specialism School, so you can explore the areas that inspire you and shape a future that fits your ambitions.

Programme Structure

You study the core areas required for accreditation: statistics, biological and general psychology, social and developmental psychology, cognitive psychology, child development and personality. Forensic psychology will feature throughout your degree and work on a reflective log book.
