Health Psychology MSc
This course is focused on how we can understand, intervene and promote health and wellbeing across the life course. Health psychology moves away from the medicalisation of health and illness, instead where in this course you will draw upon a more holistic approach to understanding health and illness drawing on the interaction of psychological, social and biological factors.
This course forms stage one of the training you need to become a charted psychologist member of the Division of Health Psychology within the British Psychological Society.
