Curriculum
This MSc course introduces you to different types of intervention and the skills to put them into practice.
These include engagement, development of trust, facilitation, enabling and the identification of a process by which information can be accessed, shared and evaluated.
You will learn how to consult with other members of your team, offering them appropriate psychosocial support and stress management strategies.
You will also be given the skills to develop psychosocial support programmes within the organisation, perhaps through its HR department.
The course includes key modules on how to offer mental support to beneficiaries outside the organisation – that is, people who have suffered directly from natural or man-made disasters.
The MSc can be completed in a year full-time or two to three years part-time, and involves passing six modules.
These include the two conceptual core modules – Psychological Aspects of Humanitarian Intervention, and Assessing, Planning and Intervening During and After Disaster and Conflict.
Optional modules include Influencing and Facilitating ‘Capacity’ Building, and Individual Group and Organisational support for IDPs and Refugees. You will also complete two core modules involving research and a dissertation.
