Awarded by
University of Greater Manchester
This programme lets you complete a UK psychology degree without leaving Colombo. Years 1 and 2 are the CIRP Diploma of Higher Education in Psychology (Level 5, 240 credits), made up of sixteen 15-credit modules. Year 3 is the BSc (Hons) final year (Level 6, 120 credits), which carries the University of Bolton award, giving 360 UK credits in all. Classes are modular and held on campus, with weekday and weekend options. The early modules cover the core areas of the discipline, from biopsychology and cognition to statistics, psychometrics and neuroscience. The final year centres on an Honors Project, an Applied Experience module and Assessment in Psychology, with two electives chosen from a list that includes loss and trauma, social neuroscience, mental health and sport psychology. CIRP states that placements arranged on non-lecture days in the final year can add six to twelve months of work experience by graduation. Years 1 and 2 follow CIRP assessment rules and Year 3 follows the University's. The site names the next step as a master's degree or employment.
