Course Description

Take the next step on your journey in psychology with this British Psychological Society (BPS) accredited course.

Why do people not eat healthily? Can we understand, predict and change health behaviours by looking at psychological factors? How do people adjust to getting a diagnosis for a chronic condition? Why do some people do better after surgery than others? These are the types of questions you'll investigate while studying Health Psychology.
