MPPP Units and Course Structure

MPPP Course Structure

The Master of Professional Psychology Practice (MPPP) is a combined program of study which supports you through your 5+1 internship requirements. This means that the individual units are all progressive units which cover all aspects of the program including: placement, placement support, individual supervision, group supervision, and any (optional) CPD opportunities and (compulsory) workshops such as NPE support are all included in the main PPP coded units. The program is not broken up into individual subjects like a lot of standard courses of study.

All units are core units and are required to complete the program.

The program structure is:
