Are you a student who wants to know more about psychology? Then join us at BPS at our online Your Future in Psychology event where you’ll learn all about the fascinating work of psychologists and where studying psychology could lead you.

Psychology is an exciting subject that is becoming increasingly relevant in the world today.

From how we buy items in the supermarket, to the way we play video games - psychology impacts all of our lives.

This exciting event is perfect for you if you’re a student at school or college and are interested in psychology. Come along to hear our expert speakers discuss their areas of work and ask those burning questions to find out what it’s really like to be a psychologist. And there’ll be psychology undergraduates on hand to share what to expect from studying psychology at university.

Registration for this event gives you access to all of the talks and sessions for both students and tutors. We will also, subject to speaker permission, be recording this event and making it available to those who have registered for this event at a later date.

Sign up today and learn more about where the world of psychology can take you.
