Entry requirements

Normally the following general University wide entry requirements apply: A recognised and relevant British honours degree to a good standard, or its equivalent.

In addition, applications to this programme are also welcome from potential students with relevant practical experience in the field of mental health through, for example, mental health nursing or patient advocacy.

Applications from all candidates will be considered on their merits.

Those without formal qualifications will be invited to undertake a short pre-course exercise typical of work on the degree programme: summarising and criticising Thomas Szasz' paper: 'The myth of mental illness' and email it to either of the course tutors directly (tthornton1 or GLAyob both @uclan.ac.uk)
