Description

From disorders and treatments, to diagnosis and assessments, we’ll help you delve into all aspects of mental health. At the same time, you’ll learn about approaches to research, systematic reviews and big data. 

We’ve designed this course with a range of modules that allow you to study a variety of topics of particular interest to you.
