Study Details: 2 years
This programme, based at Anna Freud, provides a unique foundation for individuals interested in a clinical/psychotherapy training or a research/academic career in child development. The MSc combines a comprehensive multi-perspective understanding of development and clinical practice in the early years with a supervised clinical placement, a two-year observation of infants in a family setting, and a research project.
A minimum of an upper second-class Bachelor's degree from a UK university or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard is required.

Students who successfully complete the MSc can apply their degree in a variety of settings and we anticipate that they will go into roles such as child mental health workers or assistant psychologists/ psychotherapists, or take up posts as research assistants. They may also be admitted onto professional doctorates or PhD programmes. The programme has strong links with Independent Psychoanalytic Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy Association (IPCAPA) at the British Psychotherapy Foundation (bpf), and with the UCL Doctorate in Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, and is a recognised pre-clinical course for this training.
