“The main reason I chose to study Psychology at Richmond is the duality of the programme. The degree focuses on both qualitative and quantitative research which is unique for an Undergraduate programme, as most other Universities focus on only one aspect of research.
The professors on both campuses are very responsive and keen to assist. They understand students’ needs, helping us to achieve our goals. The courses are very interesting and touch upon a wide variety of Psychology theory and application. Moreover, the academics are experienced researchers, active members of professional Psychology societies whose network and connections is extremely beneficial for students.
The way the Psychology programme is tailored, has increased my interest: the academics, the courses and the environment prepare students to go into any field of Psychology, whereas the internship opportunities offered both in London and around the world are key gate openers to kickstart a brilliant career.”
“I chose Richmond because it gave me the opportunity to expand my horizons, academically due to the dual degree offered and culturally because of the diverse nationalities represented on campus.
My Richmond experience has been unique! What I loved the most is the flexible academic programme, which means that I have been able to take classes that are of interest to me outside of my main area of study.
There is something for everyone, be that academically or outside the classroom. I have had many memorable experiences along the way which will stay with me beyond my time at Richmond”.
“I’m a Psychology major and I’m currently in my last semester.
During my internship I was a research assistant helping with the Social Relationships Study at SGDP (Social, Genetic and Developmental Psychiatry Centre) in the KCL Denmark Hill campus. The study looks at the gender differences in Autism Spectrum Disorder in adults.
My responsibilities included recruiting the participants, managing data entry, mail merges, and online questionnaires sent to the participants and their parents. I also conducted visits in the participants’ houses and administered a battery of tasks, including IQ, memory, and theory of mind tests. During the visits I also shadowed autism assessments. Back in the office I transcribed and scored the tasks and entered the data in SPSS.
Interacting with the participants has definitely been my favourite aspect of the placement. I really enjoyed getting to know the participants and learning more about ASD. The internship has also benefitted me as now I know what the job of a research assistant looks like and learned how to perform the tasks associated with this position. I also developed a greater sense of professionalism and I’m more confident about my future transition from the classroom into the workplace. In addition, the placement has shaped my future career choices as I am now considering pursuing a career in research.
Overall it was a very good experience and I would recommend every student at Richmond to do an internship if they have an opportunity to do so.”
