WELLCOME TRUST Ph.D. PROGRAMME AT UCL
Mental Health Science
The Wellcome-UCL 4 year PhD Programme in Mental Health Science provides a platform for interdisciplinary research necessary for effective translation of findings from work on mechanisms and risk factors into novel treatments and prevention strategies. Its ultimate objective is to train scientists and policy leaders for whom interdisciplinary working is the norm, and who can communicate their findings to a wide audience so that their research delivers change.
The programme follows a “1+3” model, with three, 12-week rotation projects during Year 1. Each rotation project is from a different theme of the programme. These short projects familiarise students with the different groups in which they may choose to conduct their PhD project. The different themes of the programme are shown below.
