Psychology is the scientific exploration of how the mind works and why people behave the way they do. Professional psychologists work in a huge variety of fields, using psychological theory, research methods and real-world evidence to delve into the human mind. It’s a complex and diverse field and studying for a master’s degree will enable you to build on your undergraduate knowledge, while developing a specialism which you can integrate with your career aspirations.
To get into an online master’s psychology course in the UK, you’ll need a relevant undergraduate degree and depending on the university, sometimes a period of relevant work experience is also required.
Psychology is one of the most popular courses in the UK, so fortunately you’ll find a lot of options to study it online, with over 100 distance learning master’s courses available.
Prepare for a flexible and diverse learning experience where you’ll cover a broad spectrum of material, including cognitive, social and developmental theory, as well as practical tasks and clinical aspects. The master’s level curriculum typically includes opportunities for specialisation; you’ll engage with course material and coursework through virtual classrooms, multimedia resources and interactive discussions, studying alongside colleagues from all around the world.
The online format allows for self-paced learning, and the ability for you to organise your studies around your own life commitments. Graduates are well-equipped for roles in research, counselling, human resources or further academic pursuits. You’ll also develop strong digital-communication skills which are highly transferable in a variety of employment roles.
