BSc (Dual Hons) Psychology and Education Practice

Inspired by the fact that around 30% of our psychology graduates go on to work in education, Roehampton is proud to launch this new degree that combines both disciplines to create a uniquely career focused programme of study. BSc Psychology and Education Practice combines the core elements of our newly designed BSc Psychology with key modules from the School of Education's unique new programme, BA Education Practice.

The course is accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS) and therefore teaches core areas of psychology, including developmental, social and cognitive psychology. Alongside this, students will also explore inclusive and holistic approaches to teaching and learning, providing a solid grounding in their journey as education practitioners. In the final year the two disciplines merge as students embark on an education career pathway that focuses on neurodevelopmental disorders and educational psychology.

In joining Psychology at Roehampton, you will have the opportunity to become a Mental Health England First-Aider, or train and develop skills in mental health first aid, further expanding your professional development.

This course also has the option of a one year paid work placement, to boost your employability even further.

Our BPS accreditation means if you graduate with at least a 2:2 you’ll be eligible for Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) of the BPS – which is an essential first step if you want to go on to become a Charted Psychologist. It also means our teaching is of the highest standard, and you’ll receive excellent levels of support within our School.
