This Doctorate in Clinical Psychology is collaboratively funded through NHS Education for Scotland and the University of Glasgow. You will be employed by a local NHS (Scotland) Health Board for the duration of the programme.
We welcome applications from candidates who have achieved a 2:1 or above in Psychology and have British Psychological Society Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC).
If the applicant's first degree is not from a BPS accredited psychology degree programme then the applicant must have been subsequently awarded a qualification that confers the Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) with the British Psychological Society. That qualification must have been awarded a 2:1 degree or equivalent (an average of 60% or higher):
on a Masters level conversion
or a higher diploma conversion in psychology, at 2.1 equivalent level or above, with 240 credit equivalent (120 ECTS), where the overall number of research credits is at least 80 (40 ECTS)
All applicants must have the Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) with the British Psychological Society (BPS) or demonstrate clearly that they will receive this prior to commencing training, on completion of a particular qualification, therefore we do not accept applications from final year undergraduates.
Clinical psychologists have a demanding role working with a wide range of clients, in a variety of health and social care settings, to reduce psychological distress and to enhance and promote psychological wellbeing.
This programme produces fit-for-purpose NHS practitioners.
