Unique Plus points of this degree

Applied Experience module is designed to enhance employability of the graduate and is not a module you find in many other courses. Students will be exposed to real life work scenarios with case study discussions.

Assessments in Psychology is a module focused on training students on psychological assessments relevant to Clinical Psychology, Child Psychology, Forensic Psychology and Work place assessments.

Most degrees come with few or no electives which restricts the exposure of the student to different applied areas of psychology. Having many different elective options provides the opportunity to try out their interests and select a career that best suits them.

CIRP provides final year students with the opportunities to engage in psychology related work placements during the days students do not have lectures. This enables students to have gained 6 to 12 months work experience by the time they graduate.
