Child Development

The Child Development MSc will deepen students' knowledge of child development and developmental psychology and prepare them for professional work with children and young people, or progression to professional doctorates, higher research degrees, or employment as a researcher. This programme is accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS) and serves as a conversion course, which means that graduates without a background in Psychology can also apply to build on their first-degree qualification to become eligible for the BPS Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership. 
Modular (flexible) students - Some postgraduate taught and MRes programmes are available on a modular basis. Modular study lasts between 2 and 5 years. This is different to a part-time study which lasts for a fixed period.
