Our BSc (Hons) Psychology with Foundation Year program features more accessible entry criteria while still providing a pathway to a complete undergraduate degree.
This specially designed course enables UK and EU students who don't initially meet Birmingham City University's standard Psychology degree requirements to complete additional foundational studies that prepare them for success in their chosen degree path.
The foundation year provides essential knowledge and skills to progress onto any of our undergraduate Psychology programs within the School of Social Sciences.
You'll develop comprehensive insights into how core and specialized psychology fields address modern challenges, while exploring brain function's role across various psychological approaches. Through scientific analysis of behavioral patterns, you'll acquire valuable transferable skills in communication, collaboration, and critical thinking. The program's multidisciplinary approach ensures you gain a holistic understanding of the field.
