Comments about MSc-Postgraduate Diploma-Postgraduate Certificate Mental Health - At the institution - Bristol City - Bristol

  • Objectives
    Current policy initiatives are driving towards a new approach to mental health services. Contemporary mental health services need an increasingly knowledgeable and flexible workforce to work across disciplinary boundaries and to incorporate users and carers into their practice areas. This course is designed to achieve this by enabling people to explore theoretical, philosophical and practice issues in relation to these rapidly changing mental health services. Practitioners from any professional discipline working in contemporary mental health services are encouraged to apply. The course is also designed for non-professional people with experience of mental health services. These might be users and carers, or others with a vested interest in developing excellence in today's mental health services.
  • Entry requirements
    Applicants are normally required to have a degree in a relevant subject and be working in mental health settings, or have experience of mental health services as a user or carer. For applicants that do not have a degree, alternative qualifications and experiences will be considered on an individual basis. This will require an interview and may include some pre-course work.
