[/az_column_text][az_blank_divider height_value=”15″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][az_blank_divider height_value=”15″][az_blank_divider height_value=”15″][az_single_image image=”383″ image_mode=”img-full-responsive” image_alignment=”aligncenter”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][az_column_text]Our online distance-learning MSc in ‘Professional Development (Consciousness, Spirituality & Transpersonal Psychology)’ provides an intellectually-stimulating programme of study which focuses on diverse topics around the nature of consciousness, the dynamics between psyche and soma, the psychology of self and higher states of being, and the psychological basis of spiritual and mystical practices. Our MSc programme is distinctive in valuing experiential approaches to learning and in encouraging students to incorporate insights from the programme into their own life journeys. In addition to a rigorous academic curriculum, modules exploring integral life practice, transpersonal approaches to research, and a research dissertation focus on the practical application of learning. The MSc programme consists of 180 course credits and most students complete the programme over 3 years, studying part-time. A 2-year pathway is available to those who can commit to intensive study of approximately 30 hours per week. The programme is run entirely online, although students are invited to attend an annual (optional) residential programme which takes place in the UK.
Students wishing to gain a Postgraduate Certificate can enrol on the MSc route and complete their studies after gaining 60 credits in year 1. Equally, students wishing to gain a Postgraduate Diploma enrol on the MSc route and complete their studies after gaining 120 credits by the end of year 2.[/az_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][az_column_text]The MSc programme is a collaborative venture of the Alef Trust and the Scientific and Medical Network.
