About Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Psychology with Criminology

Program Description

This engaging British Psychology Society (BPS) accredited Psychology with Criminology degree combines a comprehensive training in Psychology with the study of criminal behaviour, types of crime, and knowledge of the criminal justice system. Students benefit from over 80 academic experts and weekly research seminars, and have access to first-class laboratory suites.

The course covers all the core areas of Psychology stipulated by the BPS curriculum. This accounts for two-thirds of the course, and includes the workings of the brain; the processes and mechanisms of human thinking, feeling and behaviour; and how psychologists, psychological research and therapy can make a tangible and positive difference to people’s lives and society. The remaining third of the curriculum considers the social-cultural implications of crime and criminality, and the contexts in which crimes are committed and understood.

In the first two years of the degree, students will complete an introduction to psychology and core modules in biological, social, developmental and cognitive psychology, as well as undertaking training in research methods and statistics.

In criminology, students will complete additional modules covering criminal behaviour, crime and society, the criminal justice system, issues in contemporary policing, and penology.

In the final year, students will sit a further core module in psychology, and can tailor their studies (often with a view to future employment opportunities) by choosing from a range of optional psychology and criminology modules. In the final year, students will also complete a research project in psychology, focused on a topic of their choosing under the supervision of a research-active member of staff.

Students can also take part in the innovative Professional Practice in Psychology module, a unique feature of psychology at Nottingham Trent University. Taking on the role of a consultant psychologist, students will work on real-life problem scenarios supplied by external organisations, and provide evidence-based solutions to these organisations.
