A Stage One qualification in Health Psychology, allowing those who hold Graduate Basis for Chartership (GBC) with the British Psychological Society (BPS) to then progress onto Stage Two training in Health Psychology. Research-informed curriculum, keeping the course up to date with current developments in health psychology. Our teaching team is made up of Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) registered health psychologists and chartered psychologists with considerable experience of working within the field. A contemporary online course that covers the theoretical and foundation professional issues in health psychology, providing excellent preparation for roles within the NHS, public, private and charity sectors. Accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS), our online MSc Health Psychology course provides you with Stage One Health Psychology professional training, a pre-requisite for Stage Two training. With the subsequent completion of Stage Two training, you’ll be equipped for practice as a registered health psychologist with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and on your way to achieving status as a Chartered member of the BPS (CPsychol). Health Psychology is a diverse landscape. Working in this field requires you to use psychological theory and practice to promote health, prevent illness and support those with physical health conditions to adjust and cope with the demands of illnesses. Health psychology and behavioural science play a crucial role in fostering change in health-related behaviour. This contemporary online MSc Health Psychology will help you to make a real difference to people's lives whether you pursue a career as a Registered Health Psychologist or in health roles within the NHS, public, private and charity sectors such as public health or behavioural science.
Applicants are normally required to hold at least a 2:1 Honours degree in Psychology that is recognised by the British Psychological Society (BPS) for Graduate Basis for Chartership (GBC). Applicants with a 2:2 Honours degree in Psychology that confers GBC may also be considered for admission, subject to a satisfactory interview. Applications may additionally be considered from those holding a degree in a related discipline—such as mental health, public health, or a joint honours degree with psychology components (minimum 2:1 classification)—that does not confer GBC, provided they have relevant work experience or can demonstrate the ability to study at Level 7 through previous postgraduate study. The Programme Leader may invite such applicants to attend an interview as part of the admissions process.
