Psychology is the scientific study of human mental life and behaviour. It involves areas such as Brain and Behaviour, Social Psychology, Cognitive Psychology, Developmental Psychology and Psychological Research Methods.
Students graduate with a Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI) accredited degree.
In third year students have the option of spending one semester on work placement or studying abroad, and one semester on a research internship (all subject to availability).
Students should be interested in studying the human mind and behaviours with the rigours of scientific testing. You will use research methods including observation, measurement, hypothesis testing, experimentation, logical inference and statistical analysis.
If your ambition is to have a career as a professional psychologist, you will be interested in the variety of career paths are available, both within and outside psychology that an accredited Psychology degree opens up.
Career Options
The BSc Psychology is accredited by the Psychological Society of Ireland.
One of the greatest strengths of a psychology degree is the variety of career paths that are available to graduates, both within psychology and also outside of the discipline. If your ambition is a career as a professional psychologist, an undergraduate degree is the first stage in professional training that will require an additional two to six years of study and supervised experience.
Examples of psychologists at work include: clinical psychologists - working in healthcare settings, educational psychologists - working in schools and organisational psychologists - working in business and work settings.
