About 2-Term Pathway - International Foundation Programme - Continue to Bachelor of Science - Psychology (LM102)
Program Description
The International Foundation Programme is a one year full-time programme designed to offer international students an alternative route to undergraduate study. This programme is suitable for international students who do not hold qualifications equivalent to the Irish Leaving Certificate or who need a further boost to their English language skills.
By the end of the course it is expected that students will:
- have reached the required academic standard to study at UL
- have reached the English language level requirements for entry to UL
- be prepared for the linguistic demands of a degree course
- have demonstrated the necessary study skills for completion of their chosen course
Upon successful completion of the International Foundation Programme, students will proceed to their degree programme.
Psychology is the scientific study of mind and behaviour. Over the past century, Psychologists have examined the fascinating variety of human thought and activity and now a degree in Psychology opens up many opportunities to use this knowledge to address important social issues and improve the quality of people’s lives.
Psychology spans virtually all aspects of human life and allows us seek answers to questions such as:
- What effects do different drugs have on behaviour?
- How do children develop a sense of self and relationships with others?
- What effect does our mood have on our ability to remember information?
- How can we understand mental disorders and help people cope with their illnesses?
- When and why do people and animals help others in need?
- What are the roots of prejudice and discrimination and what can be done to resolve intergroup conflict?
By defining and investigating these and other questions, psychologists aim to provide practical solutions to the many personal and social challenges that people face in their everyday lives. By the end of this course, you will have the knowledge and skills essential for a career in Psychology. This is an accredited course so you will be eligible to register with the Psychological Society of Ireland when you graduate.
