NTU launches new Master of Psychology programme to train professionals in schools, wider community settings

NTU is launching a new Master of Science in Psychology programme in August, a 1.5-year full-time programme designed to train professionals to provide psychological support in wider community settings such as schools and the workplace. The program offers four specialisations: community health psychology, neuropsychology, thanatology (the study of death and grief), and forensic psychology. As Singapore steps up its mental health services to strengthen capabilities across the entire spectrum of psychological and psychosocial care, there is an urgent need to train practitioners to work across non-traditional settings such as schools, workplaces and the community to provide timely support to those in need. The new programme provides graduates with both the research and practical skillsets necessary to develop and provide evidence-based psychological interventions to individuals, families, and communities beyond clinical care boundaries.
