(for students who entered prior to 2018/19)
This three-year BA (Hons) programme focuses on the study of Applied Psychology and is recognised for graduate membership by the Psychological Society of Ireland.
To be eligible for the award of the BA (Hons) degree a student will be required to have achieved 180 credits by obtaining 60 credits in each of First, Second, and Third Arts (Applied Psychology). A student may not register for more than 60 credits in one academic year.
The BA (Hons) (Applied Psychology) has been re-structured and First Year students who enter the programme in 2018/19 register for CK120 BA (Hons) (Applied Psychology). See programme requirements here.
Students repeating First Year from 2018/19 onwards
A student who repeats the first year of the programme must pass and progress in accordance with university rules, as well as selecting from modules available in the repeat year which may differ from those available in an earlier attempt year. Where a student has been granted exemptions due to having passed module(s) in an earlier attempt year, an exemption in any particular module is relevant to the repeat year only where that module is included in the current prescribed programme. Students repeating first year from 2018/19 onwards may be required to take new modules as prescribed by the School. In some instances, modules may potentially carry different credit weightings and content compared to an earlier attempt year.
