Psychology
A psychology degree does not, by itself, make you a clinical psychologist. The profession has further routes and its own conditions. The course can still be a base for people-facing work, research or services.
These are study areas to explore, not programmes we provide and not confirmation that a university has places.
What you may study
- Behaviour, development and social context
- Research methods
- Ethics
- Applying ideas in organisations, education or health, depending on the course
Skills you may develop
- Reading research
- Reasoned writing
- Observation
- Discussing a sensitive subject with care
Possible career directions
- People-support roles
- Research or analysis
- Human resources and organisations
- Progression into a regulated profession, if you follow its own steps
The directions above are examples, not promised jobs and not salaries.
Who may find this interesting
It may interest you if you want to understand why people do what they do, and you are willing to work with methods as well as stories.
Typical entry considerations
Some universities ask for particular subjects or grades. A master’s usually expects a relevant earlier degree. None of this is automatic.
Exact entry requirements vary between universities and programmes.
