We offer supervision in refugee care, allowing you to undertake research that introduces a therapeutic dimension and psychosocial perspective to your work with asylum seekers and/or refugees.
Our graduates go on to several different destinations, including further study and training in psychoanalysis, Jungian analysis, or psychoanalytic psychotherapy. Many of our students are already professionals, clinical and non-clinical, so return to their existing fields, either in jobs or further training, and use their time with us to deepen their understanding.
Why we're great.
The Centre consistently achieves top ten rankings in the UK's research assessments, most recently in the 2014 Research Excellence Framework.
Our research and teaching are deeply grounded in knowledge deriving from clinical practice, to which our highest standards of academic thinking are then applied.
Located within one of the UK's leading universities for social sciences (REF 2014) - you work with senior clinicians and world-class scholars.
Specialist facilities
If you are studying within our Department of Psychosocial and Psychoanalytic Studies, you will have access to our extensive facilities to aid your learning and research. Our Albert Sloman Library is well stocked with books, journals, electronic resources, and major archives relevant to our work and, in addition, we have our own library of specialist books and journals.
In addition, our strong connections to the local NHS and other organisations facilitate placements and institutional observations for our students.
