Course summary

This unique two-year international programme is offered in collaboration with Yale University. There is a focus on developmental psychopathology drawing on multidisciplinary perspectives, with a specific emphasis on neuroscience. Students spend Year 1 in London, primarily based at Anna Freud and Year 2 at Yale University in the US. There is no part-time option available for this programme. The programme provides an introduction to a range of perspectives on developmental psychopathology, covering all major disorders of childhood. The programme focuses on being able to effectively critique current research and aides the development of practical research skills, including techniques such as fMRI and EEG/ERP. The programme is particularly suitable for students with a strong academic background in psychology, medicine, genetics, neuroscience and related disciplines who have an interest in neuroscience and child development. Applicants are not required to have extensive research experience, but some relevant research experience is essential.
