Hi, I'm curious to see if anyone is/has studied this degree and is it worth it? Does anyone know what jobs you can find that pay well with it? Thanks!
Hello there,
These are really important questions to ask before picking a degree so well done for seeking the answers. Especially when it is as big a decision as coming to university is.
Firstly a great way to find out answers to all of these questions and more would be at one of our open days, so I would definitely recommend coming along to at least one of ours. We will have current students who would love to chat to you about how they are finding our BSc (Hons) Psychology of Human and Animal behavior. You can find out more about our open days here.
To try and answer your question right now, I would say that there is plenty to do post graduation with the degree you have achieved but also the transferable skills you have picked up along the way.This course responds to the needs of industry in developing subject expertise and transferable skills appropriate to a wide range of careers.
The British Psychological Society (BPS) accredits this course – if you achieve a lower second-class degree or above, a Graduate Basis for Registration is awarded. This is the first step to becoming a chartered psychologist, if that is the pathway you want to take.
Because of our close industry links, you will have the opportunity to go on several field trips which may include visits to Chester Zoo, South Lakes Wild Animal Park, Knowsley Safari Park, Blackpool Zoo, Twycross Zoo, Dudley Zoo and Martin Mere (Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust). In addition, staff from some of these institutions contribute lectures to the course bringing more real-world examples to your learning. These connections allow are students to develop industry links that can later benefit them post graduation.
Careers and Employability staff work across campus throughout the year to provide students with access to useful resources. You can ask questions at drop-in sessions, get expert help with your CV and job applications and more.
A lot more information about our degree and future employment beyond graduation can be found on our website.
I do hope this helps.
Best wishes,

Hello,
In terms of the course information, at the stage you are at, all the information that is important right now is on our website. You can read up on what core/ optional modules there are on the BSc (Hons) Psychology of Human and Animal Behaviour. As well as how you are assessed, the teaching methods, future career prospects and the facilities we have at Salford. There is even a video about the course. More knowledge of the course will be provided during your induction week at the University.
In terms of what it is like to study at the University, I think it is brilliant. From a practical side of things, you will be taught how to use the equipment we have to offer at our institution and then have that to hand when you need or want to use it. From an academic side of things, we have our library on campus which is brilliant as a study space but also as a hub for all the reading sauces you require. There is also an online version of our library which our students have access to when working from home or remotely.
I do hope this helps you and best of luck with your first term at the University of Salford.
