  Programme
  
  The course is designed for graduates who wish to pursue a career in psychology but do not have sufficient psychology in their degree to allow them to gain the Graduate Basis for Registration (GBR) of the British Psychological Society (BPS). GBR is the first step towards becoming a Chartered Psychologist. It is the prerequisite for progression to postgraduate professional training in psychology and subsequent registration as a Chartered Psychologist working in any of the fields of professional psychology - including educational, clinical, occupational, health and counselling psychology. You take modules at the appropriate level in core areas of psychology, as specified by the BPS, and can take one option module from a selection available to BSc Honours Psychology students. If your degree is not in psychology, or it included less psychology than is required for entry to the Diploma, you may be offered a Foundation Pathway consisting of 60 credits of psychology at introductory level (taken on a part-time basis over one year).
