About Law with Psychology, Cert HE - at University of Essex Online

Understanding how the mind works and understanding how the legal system operates both have practical applications to a wide range of careers, and this combined short online course allows you to explore essential areas of both fields.

Topics you will study include:

  • civil and criminal aspects of the English Legal System
  • the role of constitutional and administrative law and their related issues
  • the theories and methods in the field of social psychology

Equivalent to the first level of undergraduate study, this course will develop your communication skills through interactive discussion forums with fellow professionals from around the world. You will also develop other critical skills such as time management, critical thinking and research, allowing you to succeed in a wide range of careers and job roles.
