BSc Psychology with Criminology With Founation Year
Course overview
The BSc Psychology with Criminology with Foundation Year at the University of Hull looks at the connection between the human mind (psychology) and criminal behaviour (criminology), giving students strong knowledge of both. The full programme includes a Foundation Year, which is designed to completely prepare students for university study. This first year is especially helpful if students are returning to education or need extra help meeting the usual entry requirements. The main degree has been approved by the British Psychological Society (BPS).
Learning brings together classroom ideas (theory) with hands-on experience (practical work), using specialised places like a brain stimulation laboratory, an eye-tracking lab, and a life-like crime scene facility on campus. To be graded, students will complete coursework, sit examinations, and complete a major psychology research project in their final year. They will also get chances to gain work experience and visit criminal justice organisations.
