The course has been developed to offer theory, knowledge and practical skills development across the areas of clinical, health and neuropsychology. In addition, you'll receive training in professional practice and research methods.
The knowledge and skills you'll develop will help prepare you for a PhD in a clinical or health-related area, or a career as a Practitioner Psychologist.
You can study full-time over one year or part-time over two years.
First-class or Second-class Honours degree in Psychology or International equivalent.
If you have a non-UK Psychology degree you must be able to evidence that you've undertaken a statistics class/module and also a research methods class/module and completed a research project/dissertation in your undergraduate (or postgraduate) Psychology degree. If you have no previous research methods and statistics experience, securing a place on the course is unlikely.

This course will be of interest to students who wish to pursue a career as an applied psychologist, either as a researcher progressing to a PhD, or to support progression to further clinical training such as clinical psychology.
The course also provides postgraduate specialisation in health for graduates to equip them with the knowledge and skills in mental and physical health and well-being to work in NGOs or in a professional position at global organisations such as the World Health Organisation (WHO).
The range of professional and research skills that our graduates develop on the course means that they are highly employable for the next stage of research or clinical training.
Many have been successful in moving to a funded PhD following completion of the course while others have gone onto psychology assistant or community mental health organisations positions.
