About Forensic Psychology, BSc (Hons) - at Kingston University London

Fascinating and disturbing, criminal behaviour arises from social, biological and cognitive factors. We need to understand these if we’re to help create a safer and fairer society.

Forensic psychology looks at the relationships between brain and criminal behaviour, how social groups interact and how human beings learn and develop. It also examines the treatment of offenders and the impact of crime on the broader community. You’ll be able to gain valuable experience with the opportunity for work-based practice or observation.

You’ll acquire a broad foundation of knowledge around key theories and ideas of psychological science, critically analyse historic perspectives and contemporary issues, and explore the social nature of crime and deviance. Choosing from a range of option modules, you’ll be able to tailor your studies to your own interests and aspirations.

Example modules 

  • Forensic Mental Health and Criminal Behaviours
  • Global Terrorism and Transnational Crime
  • Psychology of Investigations and Security

Career opportunities

This degree will help you build a career as a forensic psychologist or in a complementary sector, such as the police force, community rehabilitation settings, and/or legal services.
