Program Description
Forensic psychology is continually growing as a field and skilled graduates are in high demand. Middlesex University's BSc in Psychology with Criminology is tailored towards the student who has ambitions to work within the criminal justice system. This degree allows students to combine the study of criminology with modern scientific methods of psychology so they can gain an understanding of criminal behaviours and their effects.
This course aims to give students a wealth of skills to support them in their future career including analytical, research and communication skills along with a thorough understanding of human behaviour. Graduates from this course have gone on to work with the likes of the Home Office, Met Police, and local authorities.
During this degree, students will take part in work placements with forensic psychologists, police forces, prisons and hospitals so they can build up a portfolio of professional experience. Students can expect to engage in activities like running anger management courses for prisoners, while they also perform clinical research in areas such as eating disorders and autism, among others.
