MSc in Psychology in Education

... United Kingdom
... Cardiff Metropolitan University

Course Overview

This MSc is a conversion course which provides a Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) of the British Psychological Society (BPS). It requires no prior knowledge of psychology. It may be studied out of interest or intellectual curiosity about psychology and education, or for reasons of continued professional development and career enhancement. It is also ideal if you want to pursue a career in psychology but either did not study psychology at the undergraduate level or studied psychology on a non-accredited programme.

GBC is a prerequisite for professional training programmes in psychology which lead to full Chartered Psychologist status and occupations in such areas as Educational, Clinical, Occupational, Health and Counselling Psychology. This MSc does not guarantee entry into the necessary professional training programme.

This MSc also opens up a range of careers where an understanding of human behaviour or research methods is relevant. The knowledge and skills you will obtain are highly desired by employers within education, mental healthcare, youth and family work, therapy, social work, management and research. The research and independent learning skills you acquire on this course would also be good preparation for further study, for example, PhD.
