What students say about child-psychology

It is overall a good Uni with lots of well funded resources and opportunities. To improve it would need to put a greater store in supporting its ND students and taking a more student centric view of its curriculum. It currently has a do or die survival of the fittest approach rather than building a framework for success and guiding students to prosper.

What students say about child-psychology

Tutors are lovely but the only thing that could be improved is the support for the English and the rest of the students who are not from Scotland. It's took me 3 years to get help for my dyslexia and that is because I have to pay for it.

Studying child psychology

Child psychology degrees focus on teaching students about the behaviour and development of children and adolescents, looking at the conscious and subconscious development of young people both biologically and psychologically. Your degree is likely to involve academic fields like psychology, sociology, education, health and welfare, covering topics like child mental health and wellbeing, learning difficulties, communicating with children and child behaviours. Many child psychology degrees also involve a practical element, giving students relevant work experience in the field. Graduates will be set up to work in jobs that help young people’s learning, development and wellbeing in roles like primary school teacher, family support worker, social worker, counsellor and therapist.
