Psychology is the science of the mind and behaviour. On the A1 course, you will learn about Social Influence, Memory, Attachments Psychopathology, Approaches and Research Methods. The A2 course content includes issues and debates and 3 options (Schizophrenia, Addiction and Gender). This all ties in with scientific enquiry and mathematical calculations. There will also be an element of understanding of research. What have students who have taken this course in the past progressed to? Students that have studied Psychology go into a wide range of professions and on to higher courses. Students who study Psychology do so as it fits in really well with other A-level subjects. Many universities regard Psychology as a Science subject, so it's a suitable subject for medical ambitions. You may have an interest in helping or caring professions, counselling, nursing or occupational health. Psychology can be useful for anyone wanting to work in jobs that involved organising people, whether that be in management, training or teaching. Some of our previous Psychology students are now studying on degree courses in Psychology, Forensics, Criminology, Law, Social Work, Medicine, Nursing, Philosophy, International Relations, Business Studies and Management, Sport, Physiotherapy and Archaeology. How will I learn? You will experience a variety of teaching methods and styles, both classroom based and be expected to undertake experiments in the field. We will also go on a few trips to museums and academic events in London. You will also get the chance to complete a dissection in the biology laboratory.
