Psychology

Here you will find a wide range of Unit Award Scheme (UAS) units for psychology.

We've organised the units into categories relating to different career/degree pathways. Some of the categories include: clinical psychology, education, criminology, sports psychology, research methods, and topics in psychology.

The units can be used to support a wide range of activities within your centre, including:

  • super-curricular activities
  • UCAS and job applications
  • transition activities (supporting students as they prepare for the next step in their educational journey)
  • enrichment activities
  • group tutorial sessions
  • short 'Introduction to psychology' courses
  • psychology taster sessions
  • psychology clubs.

Students will receive a certificate each time they complete a unit. By recognising their achievements in this way, the scheme allows students to engage with learning and take clear steps towards success.
