The MSc in Psychiatric Research provides in-depth training in conducting and evaluating research in mental health. Based at the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience (IoPPN), the course has an emphasis on clinical scientific research conducted in patient populations, the biological and environmental processes that underpin psychiatric disorders, and how well-performed research can improve the lives of patients. During the MSc students are supported in building their academic skills, independent thinking, and ability to take an evidence-based approach to mental health research.
