Postgraduate profiles - MSc Health Psychology

Alison Llewellyn
Part time student, from the UK

"Studying at Bath is ideal for me. It is close to where I live and I can study part time, which fits in well with my work and family commitments. The course is very challenging – definitely not an easy option – but I am thoroughly enjoying it. My supervisor and the other staff are fantastic; they are very approachable. After the MSc, I plan to do a PhD – my main interest is using quality of life information as a coaching tool."

"Bath is the perfect city to come to for your first visit to the UK – it is really historical with great architecture and parks, and the people are really friendly. One of the reasons I came here is that Bath’s is the only course in the UK that includes a placement. I’ve been doing a sexual health placement, and it’s been going really well. Practically everything I’ve done on my placement will be able to go on my CV, and I will be able to get some published articles out of it too."

Full time student, from India

"I chose Bath over London because I wanted to experience campus life. Wherever you look, there is something scenic, or something exciting going on. The University is ranked very highly in the UK, and the course has a really good reputation. As well as my academic placement, I have really enjoyed the group work we’ve done. And the 24 hour library access is great – most of us have used it during the night! There is very little going on in Health Psychology in India – doing the course gives me a really good opportunity to take knowledge back."
