Psychology in Business (with Foundation Year)

This is a four year degree taught at our Hope Park campus. The Foundation Year aims to develop your skills so that after a year, you will be equipped with the necessary skills needed for studying the full BA Hons degree programme.

The integration of psychology within organisational settings can provide an insight into individual and group behaviour in the workplace. The single honours BSc Psychology in Business course at Liverpool Hope University equips students with the knowledge and understanding of human thinking and behaviour, and the skills to apply this knowledge to the world of work.

The course provides an in-depth scientific knowledge and understanding of the core areas of psychology (social, cognitive, biological, developmental, individual differences) and the opportunity to apply theories, methods, and approaches from psychology to the working world. Students will gain a critical understanding of how, when, and why people work best, and how to shape behaviour to enhance workplace satisfaction and productivity. They will also be supported to develop knowledge and awareness of contemporary issues in psychology and business.

Situated within the Department of Psychology, and taught by lecturers from psychology and business, the course provides an intellectually stimulating environment in which students will acquire skills of critical thinking and independent learning. The transferable skills developed through the course will be relevant to a range of careers including mentoring, coaching, occupational psychology, and behaviour change.
