Why do we think and behave the way we do? Human behaviour influences every facet of our everyday life, from the decisions we make, to how we respond to our environment and those around us. Our Psychology degree will help you to apply scientific knowledge of the mind to recognise peoples behaviour and to understand why they act in the way they do.<br/><br/>Youll develop useful and transferable skills in problem solving, communication, critical thinking and evaluation. By the end of the course, you will be equipped with all of the necessary skills and knowledge to design and create your very own investigations and experiments. You will also be encouraged, where possible, to contribute new findings and theory to existing knowledge in your specialist area. There are lots of options to choose from in your final year, so you can follow your interests in different areas of psychology. A variety of teaching and learning methods are used to deliver the course and these include case studies, essays, reports, presentations and examinations. <br/><br/>The Foundation Year (Year 0, the first year of this course) is taught at Stoke-on-Trent Sixth Form College and prepares you for subsequent study at Staffordshire University (Years 1-3) on the BSc (Hons) Psychology degree. Following completion of the foundation year, you can stay on the Psychology degree, or transfer to one of our other Undergraduate Psychology degrees. We have a long history (25+ years) of running British Psychological Society (BPS) accredited courses. We have recently refreshed and improved our courses and as a result of this we are currently awaiting the accreditation of our new courses being delivered from September 2022.
