Renowned for excellence in healthcare education, University of East Anglia offers state-of-the-art facilities, expert clinical partnerships, and innovative, research-led teaching. Our programme combines academic learning with practical experience, giving you the opportunity to gain hands-on training through placements in a wide range of mental health settings, including NHS hospitals, community mental health teams, crisis services, and rehabilitation centres.

At the heart of our teaching is a commitment to compassionate, person-centred care. You’ll learn to consider psychological, biological, and social factors in treatment and recovery, and benefit from insights shared by individuals with lived experience of mental health challenges. Our inclusive approach aims to break down stigma and foster holistic, long-term well-being.
