Psychology, MA Hons FullTime

Job prospects difficult if no paid work experience, however the School of Psychology are extremely helpful at providing research experience for students interested. They also provide great internship opportunities. Internships are organised by Dr Oliver Hamlet who has great communications via Email, along with Dr Amy Irwin ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ. Professor Patric Bach (my personal tutor) and Professor Jason Bohan all have been great to deal with. Dr Mirjam Brady-Van den Bos Is a fantastic lecturer and class teacher. Dr Jacqui Hutchison, Dr Heather Branigan and Dr Clare Kirtley and Jason Bohan are all fantastic class teachers too. Professor Jie Sui (my dissertation supervisor) is also so lovely and helpful. The entire department is great and do their upmost to support students which is reassuring particularly in Psychology! Would fully recommend studying Psychology at University of Aberdeen. A big thank you to all ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

Wish the counselling course was advertised better as it would allow me to leave uni with the qualifications I need to get into counselling. I was also unable to pick my courses for psychology, which really affected my drive and determination for my course as I wasnโ€™t able to study the fields that interest me even through there run at the school. The sociology department has been amazing, but psychology should look into being more flexible and understanding towards their students . read more
