Our Psychology BSc programme has been ranked 17th in the country for graduate prospects (Complete University Guide 2024), as a result of our unique and transformative approach to embedding employability in our curriculum. Graduates who leave our programme go on to pursue careers in health and social care, education, marketing, public relations, management, human resources, and the public sector. Roles such as psychological wellbeing practitioner and assistant psychologist are open to graduates and are an excellent way to gain experience before taking the next step towards a career as a psychologist.

Those wishing to pursue professional careers in psychology - such as clinical, educational, or occupational psychology - need to undertake further study and training to gain professional recognition as a Chartered Psychologist. Graduates will be eligible to apply for Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership status, which is an entry requirement for many accredited postgraduate training courses in psychology. This is the first step towards becoming a Chartered Psychologist. Professional careers in psychology can be pursued in the following fields; clinical, educational, occupational, sports and exercise, health, counselling, neuropsychology, forensic psychology and academic teaching and research.

Due to the wide range of skills, and the rigour with which they are taught, training in psychology is widely accepted as providing an excellent preparation for many careers. In addition to subject knowledge, graduates also develop skills in communication; numeracy; analysis; teamwork; critical thinking; computing; independent learning; and many other skills, all of which are highly valued by employers.

The University of Winchester ranks in the top 10 in the UK for graduates in employment and/or further study (Graduate Outcomes Survey 2023, HESA).
