Psychology at Sheffield Hallam University
Psychology has been an established subject area here since 1968, and we have run a degree programme with British Psychological Society accreditation since 1992. Both the BSc in Psychology and the BSc in Psychology and Law are accredited by the British Psychological Society and both confer eligibility for Graduate Basis for Registration (GBR) which is a prerequisite for professional training courses. Graduates of other degrees who do not have a BPS accredited psychology degree may be able to enrol on our Graduate Diploma in Psychology to gain the GBR without having to do a full undergraduate degree in psychology.
Our research interests include
- health psychology
- cognitive psychology
- individual differences
- developmental psychology
- critical social psychology
- gender and sexuality
- existential and phenomenological psychology
- autism
- abnormal psychology
- psychobiology
We also offer a research degree in psychology - MRes Psychology (previously known as MSc Psychological Research Methods).
