Course summary

Mental illness places a huge burden on individuals, their families and society more widely. Be part of the uncovering of its causes, so we can better treat it. This course will provide you with interdisciplinary training integrating social, developmental, neuroscientific and genetic approaches to understanding mental health and will include hands-on training in a range of advanced methods for studying the causes and consequence of mental illness. Our MSc Psychology: Mental Health Sciences programme places special emphasis on developing key skills in experimental design and statistics as well as advanced hands-on training in many of the specialist methodologies applied to mental health research. The advanced, interdisciplinary training in the science of mental health and research methods means that graduates are very well prepared for a career as a research psychologist (via a PhD). The learned skills and knowledge can also be applied to careers in social work, coaching, or education with employers such as the NHS and private healthcare providers. Graduates are also well-placed to progress onto training to become a Clinical Psychologist, Counsellor or Psychotherapist. Indeed, strong competition for places means that postgraduate training is likely to become a requirement for these programmes.
