Broaden Your Mind: Online MSc Psychology to Launch at Northumbria

A distance learning British Psychological Society (BPS) accredited course, MSc Psychology, will launch at Northumbria University in 2020, giving you the chance to kickstart a career in psychology - no matter your background.

Designed as a conversion course, the new Masters is open to graduates with a 2:2 in any subject at undergraduate level.
