What is a Psychology Degree?

 

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.

Benefits of a Psychology Degree

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.

Psychology Degree Structure

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.

    Learning through People

    If I’m being honest, I’ve learnt more at this uni through the people I’ve met and the different experiences I’ve had in Malaysia. The uni itself is pretty good as well. The campus looks almost like a resort and has facilities that you’d find at most unis. If ur looking for an international experience this is definitely the place. We’re really into sports as well. The location, however, is pretty secluded making weekends boring sometimes but u could always venture out to the city and other locations all over the country. All in all, there’s something for everyone, you just need to find your tribe.

    Student experience

    So far I have had a wonderful experience at this university. I have definitely made friends for life, whilst living life more independently than ever before. Due to being a campus uni, I was worried I’d feel a little isolated being away from the city. I actually adore the campus and feel very lucky to study in such a beautiful location, the greenery and boating lake is a welcome distraction from the stress of studying. I definitely recommend the University of Nottingham, for me, it ticks all of my boxes!
