Our Psychology and Business BSc (Hons) program blends two interconnected fields, where psychology offers insights into human behavior and techniques for behavioral change. These principles can be directly applied to business environments, including team management, strategic decision-making, and customer engagement. Conversely, business studies help ground psychological theories in practical, real-world applications. Explore the dynamic relationship between these two fascinating disciplines. The psychology component examines behavior through multiple lenses - biological, psychological, environmental, cultural, and social factors. Meanwhile, the business curriculum covers essential management functions and decision-making processes.
The program features a built-in placement year, available both domestically and internationally. This work experience opportunity allows students to gain professional insights while collaborating with industry experts. Previous psychology students at Aston have secured placements with notable organizations including Aston Villa Football Club, British Energy, The Civil Service, Ford, The Home Office, Marks & Spencer, and GlaxoSmithKline.
