Course summary
What this course is about
UCAS code: C800
Here's what London School of Economics says about its Psychological and Behavioural Science course.
Why do people think and behave the way they do in certain situations? What role does our environment have on decision-making? How does an individual’s behaviour affect wider society? These are all questions explored on our BSc Psychological and Behavioural Science.
This programme is unusual in bringing together psychology and behavioural science in one degree and exploring these subjects from both social science and natural science perspectives. As well as developing your core knowledge, you’ll learn how psychological and behavioural science theories can be applied in the real world to address social issues in areas such as health and education.
You’ll learn how to conduct high-quality empirical research, including research design and qualitative approaches such as interviews and focus groups. You’ll also study statistical analysis and interpretation and learn how to present your findings effectively.
LSE was recently ranked number one in the UK for Psychology in the Good University Guide and in the Complete University Guide. Our graduates progress to rewarding and interesting careers in government, NGOs and the private sector – contributing to national and international policy debates.
This programme is accredited by the British Psychological Society.

Night life surprisingly active; you just have to make sure to make friends in halls / course / sports. Sports particularly socially active.

Wide variety of societies available, I've found that the sports societies have been the best

It's quite good if you get stuck in, I would say that if you don't really put yourself out there then you could feel very lonely very fast.
1st year student

It is in London which is obviously quite expensive and I was never really eligible for financial support
