About Psychology, BSc (Hons) - at Hartpury University
The prominence of psychology across everyday life and the sport and exercise arena has never been more important. Apply the science of the mind and behaviour to understand how we think, feel and act.
Psychology touches every aspect of our lives. This exciting subject area will enable you to gain a thorough understanding of human behaviour and performance. Develop valuable analytical and communication skills, and enhance your ability to work both independently and collaboratively.
Are you fascinated by what drives human behaviour? Do you find yourself asking why some people thrive under pressure while others struggle, or how we can tackle challenges like inequality, mental health, and wellbeing? At Hartpury University, we’ll help you turn that curiosity into a career that makes a real difference.
Our BSc (Hons) Psychology degree is designed to give you far more than textbook knowledge. Rooted in real-world application, this course offers practical experiences not widely available elsewhere.
You'll study all the core areas of psychology required for British Psychological Society (BPS) accreditation, including biological, cognitive, developmental, and social psychology, while also exploring how psychology can be applied in our specialist areas including sport, exercise, agriculture, health, education, and inclusive of innovative approaches such as animal-assisted and green therapy.
You’ll benefit from access to outstanding on-site facilities, including our modern biomechanics and human performance laboratories, equine-assisted therapy spaces, Digital Innovation Farm complex, the professional environments related to our high-performance sports teams, and commercial businesses. Our 360-hectare campus also offers unique opportunities for nature-based and green therapy research and practice, something few other institutions can provide. These environments enable you to apply psychological theory in practical, meaningful ways throughout your degree.
Teaching is delivered by expert academics and practitioners, including those registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), and enriched by guest lectures from leaders in specialist fields. From the very start, you’ll be supported to develop the practical skills, critical thinking, and research capabilities you’ll need for a wide range of careers in psychology and related sectors.
