This MSc programme offers students the theoretical and research grounding needed for a career as a chartered forensic psychologist. It also provides clinical forensic experience to help students proceed to the next stage of their careers in this demanding field. We believe this to be the only MSc programme in the UK which focuses on the clinical aspects of forensic psychology.
The placementis a distinctive feature of this programme. On enrolment, students are allocated to a clinical forensic placement which they attend for 75 days throughout the year, ie two days a week.
