Course description
The purpose of this course is to familiarise students with relevant codes of ethics and to examine ethical and professional issues and standards related to the practice of Clinical Psychology and Clinical Neuropsychology. The course also aims to examine a range of research approaches and issues and to train students to communicate about their research, both in terms of presenting papers on their thesis projects, and in writing research documents. A combined academic and practical approach will be adopted.
