Course Summary

This masters degree has a strong emphasis on psychological investigation and exploring offending behaviour.

Course highlights:

Exciting new course for September 2022
Designed to meet the Stage 1 training requirement for accreditation by the British Psychological Society (BPS) to become a Chartered Psychologist*
Join an established and respected School of Psychology, with a thriving research culture
Learn through lectures, seminars and research projects

This degree is accredited by the British Psychological Society as the first stage towards gaining Chartered Psychologist status with the BPS.

This masters degree strikes a balance between Forensic and Investigative Psychology topics and skills to widen career options for graduates. The primary goal of forensic and investigative psychology as a discipline is to contribute to the understanding of why individuals engage in criminal behaviour and how they can be managed and rehabilitated back into society.

The teaching team have expertise across a wide range of forensic and investigative topics, both in research and practice. These topics relate to offenders and victims (with the recognition that many offenders have also experienced victimisation/adversity).

Our small by design cohort size of just 20 students provides the opportunity for you to work closely with your peers and teaching staff, and have sufficient support to progress successfully through your degree.
