Overview of the Department
Listen to a brief overview from Professor Kate Smith to learn about our department, community and specialist programmes.
Mental Health and Wellbeing
We are one of only a few Universities that provide professionally accredited studies in Person-Centred Counselling. Our well established and respected master's programme provides students with the academic knowledge and practical skills required to become a registered Counsellor.
Alongside our professionally recognised master's level training, we also offer a range of courses that develop core skills such as active listening, resilience, patience, non-judgemental attitudes, and a genuine interest in people. These skills also have wider application, often sought by a broad range of potential employers across different sectors.

I found that the teaching staff went above and beyond my expectations in their support of me and my fellow students, and this created an inclusive and aspirational atmosphere in my course.
