Overview

In this (Hons) Psychology with Sociology programme from the University of Plymouth there is a range of expertise within the psychology department, including neuroscience, social psychology, cognition, and behaviour, among other areas. This provides a range of experiences that can be used to inspire us. What I like most about the department is the knowledge and passion of both staff and students. There is a willingness to engage, ask questions and guide others in developing key skills. When we share our skills with those around us to reach a common goal, everybody wins.

Careers

Our degree prepares you for a wide range of careers by equipping you with valuable skills and knowledge that provide you with a deep understanding of human behaviour, mental processes, and social interactions. This knowledge and experience will be critical in fields such as mental health, education, business, social care, but have incredible versatility across any vocations that benefit from an understanding of human behaviour.

You will develop advanced skills and knowledge in sociology which provide the foundation for professional careers in social and community work, social science, social justice, outreach, education and public health.

Our BPS accredited degrees provide you opportunities to pursue further postgraduate qualifications, that can lead to specialised roles like clinical psychologist, educational psychologist, forensic psychologist, or organisational psychologist.

The degree also helps you develop transferable skills, including critical thinking, problem-solving, communication, and data analysis, which forms the basis for many careers beyond psychology.
