We have a long-standing reputation here at
Bournemouth University for producing both
innovative but good quality courses.
The clinical psychology course has had in
recent years 100% employability from graduates,
which is quite impressive, and people have
gone into a number of diverse avenues as a
result of graduation.
The course runs for two days a week, allowing
a person to gain clinical opportunities, clinical
work experience on the other days. So an enhanced
profile will give them a much better chance
for the rather over subscribed clinical psychology
training.
The academics at BU are really experienced
and there are so many different experts in
lots of different fields. Any kind of area
of psychology I want to go into, if there
isn't that expert at BU then, I believe there
are over forty experts in lots of different
fields that can help with all sorts of different
experiments.
The facilities are fantastic, there's a state
of the art eye-tracker, there are new labs,
there's super labs, there's pretty much anything
you can think of BU can accommodate and if
they can't accommodate then the lecturers
are brilliant at finding people who can.
There are guest lecturers coming all the time.
So a couple of months ago there was a woman
who came in to talk about autism and developmental
disorders.
These range on pretty much all topics in psychology,
which is brilliant, because you get to hear
an expert opinion and also get to hear about
how the field is developing further in the
direction you want.
So we get psychotherapists, we get people
who have been district psychologists for a
number of years and really imparting quite
valuable knowledge and experience that they
bring to enhance the various units on this
course.
