Nationally Recognised Higher EducationExpanding on units undertaken in the Graduate Certificate and Graduate Diploma of Mental Health, the Master of Mental Health aims to expand health clinicians’ knowledge and skills in mental health practice and leadership through evidence-based knowledge and practice. Students have the option to pursue a project stream or a research stream within this course. As such, they may complete either a project and two elective subjects, or complete a research dissertation in their final semester. The research stream has a PhD articulation pathway.
