Study Psychology at Leeds Trinity

Psychology examines the questions at the centre of human life: how we think, develop, relate to others and respond to the world around us.

Each of our undergraduate Psychology courses begins with a strong foundation in psychological science. You will study the core areas required for a BPS-accredited degree, develop skills in research and data analysis, and apply psychology to contemporary issues and relevant settings.

Whether you’re fascinated by forensic psychology, intrigued by social behaviour, or passionate about mental health and wellbeing, apply to a course that matches your interests, with optional modules available for exploring further specialisms.
