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.

Teaching and learning

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).
