Program Description Provided by the Institution:

The mission of the Psychoanalysis Unit is to strengthen the links
between psychoanalysis and other academic disciplines.
The unit is principally involved in graduate training, and has over a dozen
doctoral students. These students undertake work of a conceptual or
theoretical nature, as well as empirical investigations of psychoanalytic
outcome and constructs. The unit also runs an MSc in Theoretical
Psychoanalytic Studies (with the British Psychoanalytical Society, BPAS), an
MSc in Psychoanalytic Developmental Psychology (with the Anna Freud Centre)
and an MSc in Psychodynamic Developmental Neuroscience (in collaboration
with the Anna Freud Centre and the Child Study Center, Yale University
School of Medicine, YCSC).
