requirements Primary medical degree Attendance 1 year (Part-time) Places available 40 (Part Time) Overview Course content Modules Entry requirements Careers Fees and funding Apply This Postgraduate Diploma in Mental Health is designed for doctors in training who are preparing for a career in psychiatry, general practice or general medicine, and is suitable for trainee psychiatrists preparing for College examinations. In conjunction with a clinical placement in a mental health setting, this programme enables students to gain a good understanding of the major psychiatric disorders, approaches to treatment and psychopharmacology. Clinical training forms a major component of the programme, and each student should be a trainee doctor in a recognised training scheme in the UK or the Republic of Ireland, ideally in psychiatry or general practice. They should identify a consultant clinical tutor who will provide regular clinical supervision during their placement, and who has agreed to review and sign off their clinical portfolio as detailed in the study guide. This agreement should be in place before enrolling.
