Very interesting and exactly as expected. Very accurate to the course website and professors are very good. Definitely think it’s all worth it, especially with my satisfaction of the content. Only issue can be that they are quite vague with how exams go, but personal tutor is always happy to answer any questions. read more

Having completed my undergraduate BSc Psychology degree I decided to apply for the clinical psychology masters at Newcastle to further my knowledge in this area. The course content is very interesting, ranging from health psychology, autism spectrum disorders, CBT, and research apprenticeships. There is a lot that students can do within the course to cater to their interests. I have enjoyed the course so far although the jump from undergraduate to postgraduate has been pretty stressful! However module leaders are especially helpful in providing guidance and feedback with assignments to help you with the transition :) read more

Overall I'd say the course is good. There are some modules that I don't think are taught as efficiently as they could be. Most of the lecturers are really good and pretty nice but there are a few that can get a little unreasonable. There is so much self study compared to teaching time and you really have to be motivated to make it work. read more

Can’t really say much on the course because it’s all been online. The content is interesting and very thorough but I do think there have been times where needs of students have not been met. I however cannot fully form an opinion on this until I’ve had a full in person experience ! read more
