Health psychology is the study of psychological and behavioural processes in health, illness, and healthcare. It is concerned with understanding how psychological, behavioural, and cultural factors contribute to physical health and illness.
Health Psychologists promote healthier lifestyles. They try to find ways to encourage people to improve their health and also to improve the healthcare system as a whole. For example, helping people to lose weight or stop smoking, or advising healthcare providers on better ways to communicate with their patients.
You’ll learn to use your knowledge of psychology to promote general wellbeing and understand physical illness. We will teach you the skills needed to help people deal with the psychological and emotional aspects of health and illness, and to support people who have long-term conditions.
Our MSc Health Psychology has an experiential focus and emphasises the application of health psychology to real world settings. The course includes contributions from health psychology trainees and healthcare practitioners. You will carry out a brief observational placement in a health related setting, which can include third sector (charities) or industry, and the NHS (virtual or in person). You’ll usually arrange this placement yourself with support from the course team.
