Clinical psychology involves applying psychological understanding to difficulties connected with mental or physical health problems. Using this understanding, clinical psychologists assess and treat people of all ages and ability levels who are experiencing psychological distress, behavioural problems or related issues.
Students taking the MSc Clinical and Health Psychology course will be introduced to the theory and knowledge that underpins effective practice in clinical psychology. They'll explore this in relation to a range of conditions and will gain an understanding of the range of research methods used by clinical psychologists, and will conduct their own research project in a relevant area.
The MSc Clinical and Health Psychology aims to provide students with a profile of academic knowledge and research skills which, combined with relevant work experience, will equip them to make a credible application for clinical psychology training, either in the UK or elsewhere.
A variety of teaching approaches are used including lectures, case presentations, small-group sessions and seminars, and individual or group supervision. Bangor University brings together a large group of outstanding scientists with international research reputations in clinical psychology, neuropsychology and clinical and cognitive neuroscience. A number of staff also hold appointments as consultant psychologists or medical consultants with the NHS and contribute to clinical practice as well as to the training of clinical psychologists, medical students and NHS staff.
The School of Psychology has a range of specialist laboratories and researchers and uses a wide range of the latest techniques for understanding brain-behavior relationships, including functional brain mapping with event related potentials (ERP), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
