Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Psychology with Educational Practice (C500)

The BSc (Hons) Psychology with Educational Practice at the University of West London is designed for students who want to understand the psychological processes that influence how young people learn across cultures and how educators can design inclusive learning.

The course takes a contemporary approach to learning, providing small group teaching and interactive sessions delivered by a team of research-active academics with extensive experience across the field of psychology.

Students will have access to specialised equipment and software that will aid their learning and provide practical research skills, including experiment building software such as Gorilla, portable electroencephalography (EEG), eye-tracking equipment, an immersive reality room, and various validated cognitive ability tests.

Students will have the opportunity to apply their learning and conduct their own research, working one-to-one with a psychology academic.

Upon completion of the course, students may be eligible for Graduate Membership of the British Psychological Society (BPS), which includes the Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC). GBC is the first step toward becoming a Chartered Psychologist and allows students to pursue further BPS-accredited postgraduate training in areas such as clinical, educational, or occupational psychology. To be eligible for Graduate Membership and GBC, students must pass the empirical psychology project and be awarded at least a Second Class Honours degree. Becoming a Chartered Member of the BPS requires additional accredited postgraduate training, supervised practice, and relevant experience, depending on the chosen field of psychology.
