Master of Mental Health and Neuroscience

Become research-ready and prepared for the future of mental health and neuroscience. This fully-online Master program provides a pathway to higher research or academia and offers a continuation for those who have completed a Graduate Diploma.

You will also learn about the growing role of advanced neuroimaging techniques in research, diagnosis, and treatment, as well as new approaches to mental health treatment, such as brain stimulation.

Areas of focus include youth mental health, advanced neuroimaging, suicide prevention, brain ageing, neurocognition, lifestyle factors, and stress-related disorders including post-traumatic stress disorder.
