MSc Psychology (conversion)

The MSc in Psychology is a conversion route for students who hold an undergraduate Honours degree in a subject other than psychology. The programme provides a detailed knowledge of the core areas of psychology and principal theoretical and methodological issues in the field. Over two semesters, students will take nine compulsory modules. The modules are taught through lectures, seminars, workshops and tutorials. Assessment comprises entirely of coursework; there are no exams. Class sizes range up to 135 students for lectures, which for modules focusing in core psychological knowledge are shared with undergraduates in our Honours programme, and up to 20 students for seminars, workshops, and tutorials. The final three months of your course will be dedicated to a 15,000-word research project dissertation.
