Study psychology at Brunel: You’ll open your mind to new possibilities and open doors to a wide variety of careers.

Psychology BSc

Do you find yourself thinking about why different people make certain decisions and what influences them? Perhaps you’re interested in why a person would be susceptible to addiction or why someone sees colours when they hear certain words? Do you wonder why people say things via social media that they wouldn’t say in real life? Or why some people experience sensory overload while others crave constant stimulation? If these sound like questions you would like to explore, then a Psychology BSc could be for you.

Psychology (Sport, Health & Exercise) BSc

Sport psychology is a growing area of interest, particularly in professional sports. An understanding of behaviour, thought processes, strategy and motivation is key to how an athlete performs. Jointly delivered by the Divisions of Psychology and Sport, Health and Exercise Sciences, this course is ideal for students who want to explore the mind-body connection, and for those who wish to pursue a career in the psychology of sport, exercise and physical activity.
