If you have already completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, this programme will allow you to top-up your existing qualification to a full master's degree.
At Buckinghamshire New University we value our partnerships within the local community, including the West London NHS Trust, one of the largest mental health providers in the UK. The Trust is responsible for well-known institutions such as Broadmoor and other clinics treating more specific illnesses such as personality disorders.
This course is ideal to those who may already possess a PGDip in CBT, but who wish to complete a master’s thesis in the area of CBT and top up their PGDip to a full MSc.
