“We are proud to have been awarded an IoPPN Excellence Award in 2023/2024 for student satisfaction based on the Postgraduate Taught Education Survey (PTES)”. Our Affective Disorders course has been created for a broad spectrum of students and mental health professionals who are interested in specialist training from world-class experts. You will study all aspects of affective disorders, ranging from their characterisation and assessment to the challenges in treating these conditions. Our course is designed to be interdisciplinary and its focus is on both biological and psychological aspects. It is therefore suitable for students who seek to broaden their knowledge beyond professional boundaries, such as medicine, psychology or neuroscience.
Upon completion, you will have a solid understanding of the concepts, theories and practice relevant to affective disorders. You may go on to enhanced careers in mental health as clinicians and/or policy makers, conduct further full-time study in an academic research environment (e.g. PhD) or in taught clinical courses (e.g. Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, if you have completed a BPS accredited undergraduate course before and have enough clinically relevant experience), gain employment in an academic, clinical or pharmaceutical organisation. You may also enter scientific publishing.
