In December 2024, the University of Bolton was granted permission by the Office for Students (OfS) to change its name to the University of Greater Manchester with immediate effect. While we work to update our systems, you may see both names used in the information we provide. The University of Greater Manchester’s online MSc Psychology (Conversion) qualification is a great way to develop and enhance your critical understanding of psychological theories, methods and current debates. Our expert team will support you in achieving eligibility for the Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) of the British Psychological Society (BPS), an essential first step towards a professional career in psychology. If you're looking to pursue a psychology-related career or further professional training in psychology and your first degree is not a psychology degree but in an area related to psychology, the University of Greater Manchester's highly regarded conversion course is ideal. Maybe you're considering a future in educational, occupational or clinical psychology but don't have enough credits in psychology at the undergraduate level. Or perhaps your psychology degree didn't come with eligibility for the Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership of the British Psychological Society. Either way, this course is a great solution as the first step towards your career as a psychologist, especially if you need the flexibility of online study. The programme modules cover specific areas of psychology equivalent to those in the British Psychological Society's qualification exam and will give you an opportunity to achieve a firm understanding of psychological theories, approaches and research methods. Our psychology courses benefit from excellent facilities and committed, enthusiastic staff – many of whom are involved in leading research that will support your studies.
