The placement occurs between the students' second and third years of undergraduate study. Students can engage in up to 3 placements to make up the total time and are required to source the placement(s) themselves with support from the Careers and Employability Team.

In Year 1 you’ll take a module that introduces you to the main psychological approaches - social, cognitive, developmental, individual differences and biological psychology. You may also take modules in research methods including survey work and experimentation, and Individual Differences. In Year 2 you’ll study the main areas as previously studied in Year 1 in greater depth. You’ll also start to study the scholarly specialities of individual members of staff, such as health psychology, criminological psychology, and abnormal psychology. Finally, Year 3 will see you continue core studies with further specialist options, as well as a dissertation involving working one-to-one with a member of staff on an original research project in psychology.
