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.

In the first semester, you will learn at the Centre of Psychiatry how mental health can be viewed in different contexts: from causal and protective factors to prevention, stigmatization, rehabilitation and social integration. Next, you will develop the skills required to conduct interdisciplinary, translational research in mental health working with experts in translational research in the Department of Biological and Experimental Psychology.

In the second semester, you will learn more on each of these perspectives in three methods modules exploring the social, developmental, neuroscientific and genetic aspects of mental health and the complex interplay between these factors. You will get the opportunity to learn advanced methods in mental health with hands-on training in a choice of different methods including observation, interviews, Electroencephalography (EEG), psychophysiology, behavioural genetics and genomics and cognitive and behavioural neuroscience using human and animal approaches.

In the third and final semester, you will use what you have learned to develop and conduct an empirical research project. This is an integral part of this programme as it will help you develop the skills required to progress onto further academic or applied research. During the research project you will be supervised by one of our academics.
