Program overview
A one year master degree in brain and behaviour, covering neuroanatomy, cognitive assessment, neurological conditions, rehabilitation approaches and a research project.
The title says principles for a reason, and this master teaches the science of clinical neuropsychology rather than qualifying anyone to practise it.
Master of Science in Principles of Clinical Neuropsychology is taught at the Bangor University, a UK university with degree awarding powers. Because the clinical neuropsychology master is a degree, it supports an application under the UK Graduate Route, which gives two years of unsponsored work in Britain after the clinical neuropsychology master ends, or three years for a doctorate. To claim it after the clinical neuropsychology master you must be inside the UK on a valid student visa when you apply. One limit applies to the clinical neuropsychology master as to every taught course in Britain: the rules introduced in January 2024 stop taught students bringing a spouse or children as dependants, so the clinical neuropsychology master cannot support a family move.
The academic bar for Master of Science in Principles of Clinical Neuropsychology is a completed bachelor degree with 60 percent. The English requirement is IELTS 6.0 with no band below 5.5, and tuition for the clinical neuropsychology master is recorded at GBP 21,000 a year. Bangor charges no application fee, so applying for the clinical neuropsychology master costs you nothing, and no scholarship is recorded against it. the clinical neuropsychology master lists only two entry windows a cycle. Apply Study Visa manages the the clinical neuropsychology master application, the deposit, the offer, the CAS and the UK student visa as one process.

- Education: A completed bachelor degree from a recognised university, at the percentage stated.
- English (meet any one): IELTS Academic 6.0 overall with no band below 5.5; TOEFL iBT 75 with reading 18, writing 18, speaking 20 and listening 17; PTE Academic 56 with no component below 51; or the Duolingo English Test at 105.
- Application and deposit: Bangor charges NO application fee, so applying costs you nothing. Confirm the tuition deposit and its refundability in writing before any money is transferred.

- Additional requirement: This is not a practitioner qualification. Clinical neuropsychology practice in the UK requires an accredited doctorate, HCPC registration and specialist post doctoral training.
- Graduate Route: the clinical neuropsychology master is a degree, so it supports a UK Graduate Route application giving two years of unsponsored work after you finish. You must apply from inside the UK on a valid student visa. Students on taught courses cannot bring a spouse or children as dependants under the January 2024 rules.
- Student visa: Apply Study Visa prepares the CAS request, the financial evidence and the UK student visa submission with you.
