Psychology is the favourite science for students who want to get into the depths of human feelings. This is considered to be the science of mind and behaviour. More specifically, psychology wants to explore the way people think, act, and feel, by appealing to the emotional side of people.
Passion can lead students to choose this specialisation. It is not considered a difficult one, but it is not very easy to approach, as the theoretical elements of the discipline are combined with the practical ones.
After studying Psychology, students choose to specialise in a particular sub-field. Depending on their preference, they can choose between Biological Psychology, Cognitive Psychology, Comparative Psychology, Developmental Psychology, Personality Psychology and many others.
Psychology is a great opportunity to get to know each other better and to get to know others. Thus, students who are looking to understanding human behaviour, feelings and mind gain an inside vision of what these notions really mean and what determines people to make certain decisions and act under different circumstances.
The employment rate among Psychology graduates has grown in recent years. Salaries are satisfactory, and young people can focus either on psychological services in schools, hospitals, treatment centres, clinics, depending on the specialisation chosen. Furthermore, Psychology graduates can integrate a career in social media, marketing, and advertising, as they understand best the reasons why people choose to make decisions according to what they see in real life.
In the four years of Bachelor studies, graduates acquire the necessary knowledge to practice Psychology, initially learning the underlying theoretical notions. These notions become an important starting point in their career, seeing later how practice blends very well with theory. It should be noted that on the labour market, students who hold a Bachelor’s degree are much more appreciated and have an advantage over those who follow simple courses.
A Master’s program usually lasts between 2 and 3 years, coming as a complement to the Bachelor’s courses. Master courses have a much more loaded curriculum and a great deal of information. A Doctoral program is dedicated to students who want to do research in Psychology in various institutes or to become teachers. This has a duration of between 5 and 7 years.
– Great support from curriculum tutors.
– Diverse university professional studies.
– Amazing support for RPK and APK.
– Right amount of University assignments vs placements.
– Very contactable staff, including those in charge of the ITE course.
The professors are exceptional and the resources they provide are also amazing. The amount of support for students is phenomenal and goes above and beyond. The areas for improvement are in the facilities themselves, the available study space is limited, food is lacking in quantity and is not accessible to those on a lower budget.

View moreYes I would recommend my program- the professors are generally easy to contact and very approachable
The campus is very green and has good facilities
The downside to this university is the lack of events and the expensive location
Also, there aren’t so many places for students to go on campus to socialise.
The university is really well equipped and the environment makes me enjoy my time at Sussex.
Brighton is an amazing place to go to university and met so many people from different backgrounds. I would recommend.
I really love coming to Sussex, because it’s in the South Downs you don’t feel overwhelmed or like you’re trapped like you can do in a big city. All of the staff are really welcoming and you don’t feel uncomfortable asking them for help with your course. If you do feel uncomfortable talking to people you don’t know, you have your own academic adviser who can really help you with course issues but also if you are having any personal problems. I would say that a down side is definitely the price, the shops on campus are all really expensive and the accommodation is expensive and sometimes you end up having quite a few problems in your flat over the space of a year.
