This MSc will consider mental health and wellbeing in education using a psychological science lens. With our world-leading, research-active team, you will critically consider theoretical and empirical approaches to understanding the unique and complex context of education for mental health and wellbeing.
The programme will be delivered in-line with the exemplary practices employed within the host department, through a range of lectures, workshops, research projects, tutorials, seminars, and student-led, tutor-facilitated discussions. This will enable students to engage with experts in the field as well as each other, to experience a genuinely multidisciplinary and diverse learning community.
Summative assessments are varied to widen transferable skills and to ensure equality. Examples depend on options taken, but include, annotated bibliography, presentation, essay, e-video, lay summary, multiple choice, poster, reflective account, research report, scientific communication. In addition, all students will conduct research for analysis and write up for a dissertation. Formative work aligned with summative assessments will be embedded throughout each module to facilitate your learning (e.g., lecturer-led in-class exercises, scaffolded group/peer work and discussion feedback loops).
