Psychology
and
Society BA (Hons) Degree opportunity for mature students:
Psychology
and
Society represents a different way of doing Psychology and of
being a Psychologist.
Psychology
and
Society BA (Hons) is a socially engaged, environmentally aware,
spiritually literate and integrally informed undergraduate degree
running at Leeds Metropolitan University’s School of Social Sciences.
It is currently the only undergraduate degree of its kind in the UK and
offers a unique, varied and rich learning experience.
This course provides a comprehensive knowledge of the study of human
behaviour and experience within a social context. It sees all
psychology as being affected by historical social, cultural and
political forces.
A theme of the course will be that of social, emotional, cognitive and
spiritual growth. There are modules in consciousness studies,
psychoanalysis, societal psychology, humanistic and transpersonal
psychology, parapsychology, the psychology of myth, the social
psychology of music, the work of Jung, interpersonal and intrapersonal
skills, the psychology of religion and spirituality and many other
exciting topics (including the opportunity to pursue your own research).
Psychology and Society is critically oriented and will demonstrate the
limitations as well as the value of conventional psychology.
