About Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Psychology and Counselling (C843)
Program Description
This fascinating programme combines a BPS-accredited psychology degree with counselling and mental health modules. Learn from research-active staff at the best modern university in Scotland for psychology research. Why do people behave in the way they do? What makes people react in certain ways? How can mental health issues be treated? This innovative degree allows students to develop a scientific understanding of human behaviour and combine it with a knowledge of mental health and counselling skills.
Psychology is the scientific study of behaviour and mental processes, and the relation between the two. It explores how we act and interact, both as individuals and in groups, and the thoughts and feelings that motivate human behaviour. Counselling is concerned with the integration of psychological theory with interventions and therapeutic practice. Students in this course will develop a scientific understanding of psychology as a discipline and practical skills in counselling and therapy.
Students can take a range of options during this degree, including: cognitive psychology, social psychology, counselling theories and interventions, therapeutic skills and approaches. These options will provide students with a broad knowledge base across all areas of psychology and counselling.
Psychology and Counselling graduates have transferable skills which are in high demand in the general graduate job market. These skills include communication, numeracy and statistics, information technology skills, research evaluation and analytical thinking. This degree provides a good starting point for a number of careers beyond psychology and counseling, including teaching, research, social work, marketing, human resources, civil service, management, and many more.
