Career opportunities

Equip yourself with the tools to apply behavioural science to address global challenges such as sustainability, climate action, digital innovation, health and social justice through the lens of human behaviour. You’ll study a series of modules outlining and applying diverse perspectives on why people behave in the way that they do, and offering theory- and evidence-based solutions for supporting people to change their behaviours in a way that benefits them and broader society. As a graduate of this Behaviour Change programme, you will be well prepared for a career with behavioural analysis at its core. This may be in healthcare, sustainability, human resources, teaching, policymaking or governance and planning for employers such as the NHS, healthcare organisations, charities, schools, local and national government, and non-governmental organisations. 100 per cent of postgraduate psychology graduates go on to employment or further study (Graduate Outcomes 2024, HESA).
