Course Overview

Health psychology is an expanding area of global employment with opportunities for graduates in hospitals, universities, and community-based organizations. Designed and delivered in collaboration with researchers and practitioners within the field, this course will give you the opportunity to explore the many ways in which psychology can be applied to an understanding of health and illness and to modern healthcare systems. You will also attend distinct interprofessional learning events for the equivalent of 2 days throughout the program. These will focus on inter-professional relationships and interdisciplinary working in healthcare settings. All academic staff contributing to the course are research-active, have presented their research at national and international conferences, and published in specialist journals including Social Science and Medicine, Psychology and Health, and Journal of Health Psychology.

General Eligibility

  • We will consider applications from students with non-Psychology undergraduate awards of 2:1 or above where candidates can justify significant experience in a health context and/or knowledge of health practices, policies and systems.
