Health Psychology (MSc) - Manchester Metropolitan University

Health psychology is a rapidly growing discipline, which can contribute to some of the biggest health issues currently facing society. Health psychologists have been at the forefront of the COVID-19 pandemic, frequently in the media spotlight as one of the expert groups helping our populations keep well and cope with illness, isolation, stress and the many ways life has changed.

On the Master in Health Psychology (MSc), students will ask questions about the key health issues facing our communities, from our ageing population to pressurised health services, global health challenges and health inequalities.

Through the Master in Health Psychology (MSc), learners will explore human behaviour, health behaviour change, neuropsychology and research methods. And, you’ll seek ways to improve health, illness and healthcare systems through applying psychological theory and practical methods.
