Additional Information

Career prospects

The Psychology and Health Inequalities MSc programme is designed to equip you with a range of transferable skills and experiences so that you are prepared you for a variety of possible career paths. For example, you will learn about the social determinants of health, develop your research and analysis skills, learn about engaging with different marginalised groups in society, how to use research to influence policy and practice, gain valuable experience in the real-world on your placement, and benefit from one-to-one supervision from an expert in their research field as part of your dissertation.

These skills and experiences will make you well placed to work in areas that need an advanced understanding of research and analysis, health and health behaviours, seldom heard groups in society, and how the conditions people are born, grow, and live can shape their health and what we might be able to do to readdress the balance. For example, you might want to work within a government department seeking to understand how policies might impact different groups in society, or with a non-governmental organisation (NGO) or charity creating ways to support people from more disadvantaged backgrounds. Alternatively, you might pursue further postgraduate study by doing a PhD or taking further professional training. The Psychology and Health Inequalities MSc will prepare you for these roles and many more.  

Potential roles related to the course:

• Researcher/analyst working with government departments, charities, or private industry
• Research assistant
• Further postgraduate study (e.g., PhD)
• Communications advisor
• Research consultant
• Information officer
• Research manager
• Market and/or user experience researcher
• Public health advisor and/or analyst
