Master of Science - Children’s Psychological Conditions

专业介绍

The MSc in Children's Psychological Conditions equips students with a thorough understanding of the psychological factors that cause and maintain emotional and behavioural problems in children, enabling them to make a real difference.

Taught by leading international experts, students discover how mental health difficulties and neurodevelopmental conditions emerge in childhood. They gain in-depth knowledge of how conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism and conduct disorder can be best assessed, enabling them to inform intervention and advise the best course of treatment.

Students undergo a range of professional training in emotional, cognitive and neurodevelopmental assessments for children, classification systems of childhood conditions and in observational coding of child behaviour and parent–child interaction.

Research training also forms a key focus of the programme. It is designed to strengthen entrants' credentials for entry to a PhD in developmental psychopathology, or to doctoral training programmes in clinical or educational psychology. In addition to providing training in basic research, the course aims to integrate research perspectives from clinical and educational psychology.

Located at the dedicated Centre for Human Development Science, the programme will equip students with the skills, knowledge and experience to pursue a rewarding career in child neurodevelopment, clinical psychology or educational psychology.
