Psychology has a daily impact on people’s lives. Study in Cambridge with our world-leading researchers, and take the first step towards becoming a chartered psychologist on our British Psychological Society (BPS) accredited degree course.

Curiosity about people’s thoughts, feelings and behaviour is at the centre of this course. You’ll be encouraged to keep asking questions, and develop the scientific, analytical and research skills you need to find answers.

Psychology affects everything we do. While on this course, you’ll learn about scientific, philosophical and historical areas of psychology. Our core modules will give you a solid foundation in the main principles of psychology, and our optional modules the freedom to concentrate on your own interests in more depth. By the time you graduate, you’ll be able to follow your interests into specialised further study, or find a career perfectly suited to you.

About this course

This degree will open up a wide range of careers. You could go on to become a psychologist, or specialise in areas like health, educational or forensic psychology. You’ll be able to join the British Psychological Society if you graduate with at least a second-class honours degree.

The skills you’ll learn are highly transferable, so you won’t be limited in your choices. The ability to write well, analyse data and understand human behaviour will prepare you for whichever career path you choose.

Graduation doesn’t need to be the end of your time with us. If you’d like to continue your studies we offer a wide range of full-time and part-time postgraduate courses including Masters in Foundations in Clinical Psychology, Clinical Child Psychology, Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience and Research Methods in Psychology.

Our staff are actively engaged in research, and they’ll support you all the way. Plus, there’s the opportunity to go to extra-curricular weekly seminars, which feature guest presentations from specialist academics and researchers.
