Course info

Our DProf course recognises the achievements of practitioners in the disciplines of psychological trauma. The DProf facilitates the generation of original knowledge that comes out of experience and practice and enables a fresh and meaningful contribution to be given to practice-based knowledge and dialogue. There is a vibrant research community at Chester, consisting of both PhD and DProf research students, who meet regularly together, alongside the research staff, to support each other and stimulate new thinking and research ideas. Many of the staff who input on the programme are nationally and internally recognised for their subject contributions.

I think the support is great. The course is good however I personally do not enjoy the lectures in third year. I feel the atmosphere is great and the library is a lovely place to study. My only complaint is that parking is quite limited as you have to arrive 1-2hours before just make sure you have time to find a space.

Everyone is very friendly and the staff are very helpful. There is a good atmosphere on campus and it helps students to relax. There is plenty of support both academic and health and wellbeing for students to turn to.

Loved it! Absolutely comforting experience. I would say the staff was EXCELLENT. Sue and Dale were at their BEST when it came to teaching and student support. I must say, I was able to get my final project done only because of Sue. I appreciate all the resources provided to us by university, and access to so many databases and online libraries. Everything was made easy but studies specifically were made easiest. Grateful to have been able to experience doing my masters in this University.

Hands down, the best part. Uni throws you together with people from different backgrounds, countries, and mindsets. You end up making friends you never would’ve met otherwise flatmates who become family, coursemates who suffer through deadlines with you, and random society friends who drag you to events you didn’t know you needed. You grow socially as much as academically. You learn how to live with others, communicate better, and build real independence

The system is easy to navigate and there is a lot of support when needed. However the cost of living in the area is too high. Also student life is a bit boring

I like it here a lot! I think it’s an amazing place to go and study! there are lots of things to do and get involved in and it being so close to town is really great! I would say something that could be improved is a better system of helping the students get acquainted and showing them more of what it’s like to actually live on campus and be here.

The university is great, there are lots of facilities and the staff are really helpful. There are plenty of areas to have lunch and catch up with friends. It’s a good student city with plenty to do even if you don’t drink and the university is a really supportive environment.
