Course Overview

Psychology

Do you ever wonder why is it we behave as we do? How do gangs, teams, and friendship groups form? Do you wonder if smiling does make you feel more positive? Do you often ask more critical questions about life and who we are?

Psychology has a science base yet includes a balance of liberal arts, technological knowledge, statistics, and computer-based skills. As well as classic psychological theories and research, on this undergraduate degree, you’ll be debating social issues, studying specific mental processes, such as memory, language, and attention, as well as broader issues and theories – historical and contemporary. As well as applying psychological knowledge to various subjects, you will develop your skills in problem-solving, data analysis, prediction, and reasoning, focusing on real-world applications.

Here at BGU in Lincoln, we ensure you have close support and contact with your tutors, and with small group sizes, you’ll always get the help and feedback you need on your course. We also know how important it is to experience a natural working environment, so through work placements and other projects, you’ll be equipped for whichever career path you choose after your degree. With research-informed teaching and research-active staff, you’ll receive scientific training and gain an in-depth understanding of the subject's nature while applying your knowledge and theory to real life.

Counselling

This joint honors program focuses on a humanistic approach. Specifically, Carl Rogers's person-centered therapy is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of counseling theories and techniques without focusing on becoming a practitioner. The program offers an exploration of humanistic counseling approaches, personal growth, self-awareness, and the development of therapeutic relationships.

Students in the Counselling half subject will study humanistic counseling models, such as person-centered therapy, transactional analysis, and gestalt therapy. Students will develop essential counseling skills, including active listening, empathy, and effective communication. Students will have opportunities to engage in role-plays and reflective exercises to enhance their practical abilities.

While this joint degree program does not focus on training students to become counseling practitioners, it does equip them with a strong foundation in humanistic counseling and skills that will transfer into various career paths or pursue further training in this field.

General Eligibility

Application for this course is via UCAS, although there is no formal requirement for UCAS points to access the system (usually, GCSE English or equivalent is desirable). As part of your application, you will have the opportunity to speak with a member of BGU Admissions staff to resolve any questions or queries you may have

You will also need GCSEs in English Language and Mathematics at grade 4 (previously C) or above (or equivalent).
