Student review [#27920] for Psychology
at Edge Hill University - EHU

The Edge Hill Psychology BSc surpassed my expectations, particularly as I was just completing my first year as Covid started and my second year was entirely remote as I was considered high risk. I felt that the university adapted quickly and efficiently to the change of circumstances and went above and beyond what was required. For example, I was allowed to complete my whole 2nd year from home as I was anxious about my personal health, and whilst Government guidelines kept changing, the university was consistent in their approval of work from home for the vulnerable.

On returning to university to undertake my third year, the university had made alterations, the biggest of which was that all lectures were now available as recorded sessions. It had become obvious to me during covid that a recording of lectures was a plus point for any student not just those working from home and I felt that the university and psychology department took this on board.

Modules in the third year had a flexible approach to seminars, allowing students to work from home when required but also giving them the flexibility and opportunity to attend class.

All around I felt that the psychology department handled very difficult circumstances very well.
