Our DProf course recognises the achievements of practitioners in the disciplines of counselling and psychotherapy. The DProf facilitates the generation of original knowledge that comes out of experience and practice and enables a fresh and meaningful contribution to be given to practice-based knowledge and dialogue. There is a vibrant research community at Chester, consisting of both PhD and DProf research students, who meet regularly together, alongside the research staff, to support each other and stimulate new thinking and research ideas. Many of the staff who input on the programme are nationally and internally recognised for their subject contributions.
Getting in
As the university states it
2:2 honours degree or above. MA/MSc in a Counselling/Psychotherapy discipline graded at 65% or above for the research dissertation. Please evidence this by providing your final Master’s transcript. Experience or training in a range of research methodologies. Substantive therapeutic practitioner experience (in the field of counselling and psychotherapy) is also required. The nature of the programme draws on the student’s practitioner experience as a source of the content they will work with in their studies, so this is required in order to do this effectively.
