Summary

This course provides a thorough and comprehensive training in the knowledge base of forensic psychology. It is accredited by the British Psychological Society, counting as the requisite Stage 1 component of the process towards becoming a Forensic Psychologist of the British Psychological Society.

You experience a critical and questioning approach to the discipline of forensic psychology. You develop as an independent critical thinker, resilient and well prepared as a forensic psychology practitioner. The programme covers the key knowledge areas in a way which represents the stages and processes in the criminal justice system and the pathways offenders and victims take through it.

The integrative approach of the courses sees ethics, practice and professional skills incorporated as appropriate to each topic, enhancing the relevance of these issues, and applied psychological knowledge to the understanding, investigation, assessment, interventions and management of offenders.

You employ a scientist-practitioner approach to issues relevant to professional practice and research in forensic psychology. Research laboratories and simulated environments including the mock courtroom, police station and interview suites develop your communication and delivery of evidence skills.
