What will I learn?

This course is delivered in partnership with North Bristol Trust, a regional department of the UK National Health Service (NHS). You will therefore learn about the theory and practice of clinical neuropsychology from experienced clinicians working in this area and gain an authentic understanding of clinical practice in the UK. Around 80% of our taught content is delivered by practising clinicians. We are passionate about neuropsychology and its application to society to improve the symptoms, well-being and quality of life of those affected by damage, disease or dysfunction of the brain. This course is therefore designed to train and inspire the next generation of clinicians, researchers and allied professionals interested in working in neuropsychology. On this course you will: Learn about a range of neuropsychological disorders and pathologies, as well as focusing on principles of assessment, formulation and rehabilitation. Have the choice of adult or paediatric neuropsychology specialism at the beginning of the course. Gain a bio-psycho-social perspective through our teaching, recognising the contribution of biological, psychological and social factors in understanding the causes and consequences of brain injury and disease. Learn about neuroanatomy, neuroimaging techniques, and the latest theories of brain function. Gain the skills to evaluate research at the forefront of the field and understand the translation of theory and research to clinical practice. Engage in weekly structured tutorials with clinical psychologists that allow you to explore different aspects of clinical practice and gain insight into patient pathways and evidence-based formulation (during term time). Undertake research through your dissertation, there are opportunities to conduct your research project with clinicians working in the NHS. Take taught units which are identical to those we provide to train qualified psychologists to specialise in clinical neuropsychology. While this programme is not formally accredited by the BPS, the core content is dictated by the British Psychological Society (BPS).
