Psychology A Level (AQA)

... United Kingdom
... South and City College Birmingham

Course Overview

Psychology is the scientific study of mind and behaviour. Psychologists approach the study of human beings differently to best understand why we behave as we do.

Psychology is a multifaceted discipline and includes many sub-fields of study in areas such as child development, sports psychology, health psychology, psychopathology, social behaviour and cognitive neuroscience. Psychologists perform scientific and non-scientific investigations and then apply their theoretical findings to explain everyday behaviour.

You will also be expected to complete a work placement as part of your programme of study. Study skills and employability skills will be developed with the help of your personal tutor.

General Eligibility

You will need 5 GCSEs in curriculum subjects, including two at grade 6 or above. Due to the large amount of biology and statistics on the syllabus, GCSE English language, maths and science in grade 5 or above are mandatory requirements.

Part Time Work Details

20 hours of work permit weekly for international students.

Language Requirement

  • IELTS 5.5; Reading and writing must be at 5.5
