Examples of workplace learning

Psychology at Bradford involves opportunities to be mentored by professionals in mental health who will guide your aspirations to work in this area, right from the first year of study.

These include once-a-semester week-long intensive employability weeks with input from a clinical psychology admissions tutor, clinical psychologists, a local educational psychologist, a psychological wellbeing practitioner, and a range of businesses keen to attract psychology professionals.

In addition, there is an exciting range of placement opportunities such as teacher training, mentoring young people, mental health services, placement with the Bradford District Care Trust in clinical psychology (on a competitive basis prioritizing under-represented groups), and working in the 'Born in Bradford' project.

In collaboration with Pain Association Scotland, we are planning to support members of the public in the self-management of chronic pain. Students from the first year of study will have an opportunity to observe and learn how members of the public benefit from this support, potentially offering experience relevant to a career in mental health services.

"A pioneering first"

"The collaboration between the University of Bradford and Pain Association Scotland is a pioneering first and will give students a valuable opportunity to understand the self-management approach to health, with a particular emphasis on chronic pain. This is a growing area of health care, especially relevant as health services move towards person-centered, bio-psycho-social models.

"This is a very practical course component in which students will gain insights based on observing and participating in live group work with patients, the place where theory meets practice. Alongside the topics of self-management like stress, sleep, pacing, and understanding pain, students will also see the bio-psycho-social model in action and will observe rapport-building and motivation issues.

"This is a welcome first of its kind that will equip students with positive formative experiences that will inform study and may even inspire career choice." - Professor Sonia Cottom, Pain Association Scotland.
