Postgraduate Subcommittee of the BPS Division of Health Psychology
The sub-committee was formed at the end of 2004 to promote the interests of
all Health Psychology postgraduates (i.e. MSc and PhD students, Stage 2
Trainees). The sub-committee aims to provide improved peer support and
guidance, relevant training and career resources and more effective
communication between the DHP and Health Psychology postgraduates. The
committee meets 3-4 times per year and consists of four members; Health
Psychologist in Training rep, Liaison Officer, PsyPAG rep and BREATHE rep.
Details of the current reps and their roles can be found below.
As part of our aim to improve communication between the DHP and
postgraduates, the DHP website (www.health-psychology.org.uk), is being
regularly updated, so visit occasionally to keep up-to-date on developments
within health psychology. The subcommittee exists to represent the needs
of all health psychology postgraduates, but in order to do this we need to
know what your needs are, so please get in touch with the appropriate rep
with any questions/issues.
