BSc (Hons) Psychology with Child Development

... United Kingdom
... University of East London

Course Overview

Your degree in psychology with child development will develop your knowledge and understanding of children and young people from a psychological, cognitive, social, emotional and cultural perspective.

You'll be focusing on why babies, children, adolescents and older people behave the way they do. You'll also design and carry out studies to explore the factors that go to influence adult behaviour.

The aim is to learn how psychologists can use their knowledge to understand individuals and help them to make a positive difference in their life's development.

You'll be studying in one of the largest - and friendliest - schools of psychology in the country, with a huge range of expertise available to you on the campus across a range of subjects. 

Many jobs and careers are options for you with a BSc in Psychology with a Child Development degree. These include jobs within the allied psychology sector, such as Employment Specialist, Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner, Social Prescribing Link Worker, Wellbeing Manager, Mental Health Social Worker, FE Psychology teacher, Research Assistant or Assistant Psychologist, Youth Worker; School Counsellor and support worker. Some of these may require further training that we can help you with.

Some of our graduates choose to seek employment in non-psychology areas. These are jobs in areas where there are employers who want psychology graduates, due to the transferable skills you will gain during your studies. These include human resources, market research, civil service, business graduate training schemes, teaching, third sector and charity roles, administration, self-employed or entrepreneur, data work in public and private sectors and allied health professions, and nursery management/lead roles.

BSc Psychology with Child Development is also an essential qualification for students seeking further training and careers in academia, research, clinical, counselling, occupational and educational psychology. All of these options are possible with our BPS-accredited degrees alongside the experience. Other postgraduate options that you may wish to specialise in include health psychology, sports psychology, neuropsychology or neuroscience, and child and adolescent mental health psychology.
