MSc Forensic Psychology Masters

... United Kingdom
... Cardiff Metropolitan University

Course Overview

Teaching in the MSc Forensic Psychology Programme is predominantly conducted in small groups and adopts an interactive approach. The Research Methods and Design module and the Dissertation workshops are the only part of the programme which is taught in a larger group of around 40 to 50 students as opposed to between 10 and 20 students on the core modules. As a result, teaching involves a range of discussions, activities, evaluations of papers, case studies and role-play exercises. The focus within the programme is on both content and key skills to develop specialists in the field of forensic psychology with flexible generic skills. These experiences also help to foster student development and confidence as independent life-long learners.

Student learning is promoted through a variety of learning and teaching methods. These include lectures, workshops, online learning through the virtual learning environment, Moodle, as well as self-directed learning. Each student will have an allocated personal tutor to support them through their period of study.
