1 MSc International Programme in Addiction Studies Prospectus
2 The Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience The Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience (IoPPN) is a global leader in teaching and research in the sciences relevant to mental health. Our work encompasses almost the entire range of disciplines required to understand the causes of mental disorders, to develop new treatments, and to evaluate their implementation at patient level, as well as at the level of services and national health and social care policies. As a student at the Institute you will be immersed in a vibrant, interdisciplinary research culture. You will mix with senior staff and fellow students working in complementary fields on a day-to-day basis, in seminars, lectures and, informally, in places like the café diner. We have strong connections to the South London and Maudsley Foundation NHS Trust; many of our academics are involved daily in the care of patients and we consult patient representatives about planning and design of research. The Department of Addictions Formed in March 2010, The Addictions Department brought together the addiction research unit and the sections of alcohol research, tobacco research and behavioral pharmacology. The Addictions Department is also known as the National Addiction Centre (NAC). The emphasis of our research is on what works in the prevention and treatment of substance misuse: the NAC represents a network of clinicians, researchers and clinical teachers who have a shared commitment to excellence in prevention and treatment work, and to supporting and strengthening national and international endeavors in this field. Over the last 30 years, the NAC has developed a body of research evidence that has informed the development of new treatment services for alcohol, smoking and drug problems in the UK. This work ranges from trials of new therapies and preventative treatments to studies seeking to understand the genetic and biological basis of addictive behaviour. The Department is headed by Professor John Strang, who is also Leader of the Addictions Clinical Academic Group (CAG) of the King s Health Partners AHSC (Academic Health Science Centre). The MSc International Addiction Studies The Master of Science in International Addiction Studies (International Programme in Addiction Studies (IPAS)) is an international online programme developed and delivered by the partnership of Virginia Commonwealth University, King's College London and the University of Adelaide; three of the leading research universities in the field of addictions. IPAS is designed to be a leading international postgraduate educational programme in addiction studies which attracts students from around the world and educates and supports them to become the next generation of leaders in the addictions field. This innovative programme is delivered entirely online. The IPAS emphasis on presenting international best practice in addictions treatment, policy, programme development and evaluation, and comparing approaches across countries so as to facilitate students in developing best practices for their own career and location, makes it unique among Masters Programmes offered elsewhere.

4 CORE MODULES Module: Biological Basis of Addiction (20 Credits) (delivered by University of Adelaide) This module is designed to provide an overview of the neuropharmacology of drugs of abuse and dependence, including basic principles of drug action as well as comprehensive coverage of the major classes of drugs (opioids, stimulants, nicotine, alcohol, sedatives, cannabis, hallucinogens). Students study mechanisms of action, effects, pharmacokinetics as well as tolerance and dependence for each of these drugs/drug classes. The reasons for addiction including biological, genetic, cultural and other determinants are discussed. Students learn about laboratory-based methods used in addiction research Module: Addiction Policy (20 Credits) (delivered by Virginia Commonwealth University) This module is designed to provide students of differing backgrounds with an understanding of the process by which international addiction health policy is formed and reformed around the use and misuse of both licit and illicit drugs. The module looks at the epidemiology of addiction around the world and the relationship between the burden of addiction and the corresponding effects of national and international drug policies. Module: Treatment of Addiction: Psychosocial Interventions (20 Credits) (delivered by King s College London) This module is designed to explore the scientific basis and treatment of substance misuse from a psychological perspective germane to the management of drug, alcohol and nicotine dependence. Students have the opportunity to evaluate the principles of different theoretical approaches underlying psychological assessment and evidence-based practice. During this module students develop a critical awareness of the current literature related to psychological theories of addiction. Students examine the use and comparative efficacy of different psychological therapies in clinical practice including brief interventions, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Motivational Interviewing /MET. Other interventions (case management, group work, self-help, integrated treatment for co-occurring disorders etc) are also examined alongside the evidence base for Relapse Prevention, Contingency Management and Therapeutic Communities. Finally, students have the opportunity to explore psychological approaches used with specialist populations such as young people and adolescents. Module: Public Health Issues & Approaches to Addiction (20 Credits) (delivered by Virginia Commonwealth University) This module provides an introduction to basic concepts and research methods in Public Health and Epidemiology as they relate to the study of addictions, as well as an in-depth consideration of the personal, social, economic, and cultural burdens/costs associated with drug and alcohol abuse and dependence. Individual and community-based risk and protective factors related to addictions and primary and secondary prevention efforts aimed at reducing the addictions-related public health burden are also a focus. An online lecture format featuring presentations by leading researchers and policymakers in the field of addictions is used, along with readings, online discussions, and writing assignments, to (a) gain a greater understanding of the enormous costs of addictions at every level of society, and (b) introduce students to some of the current thinking and programs related to the primary and secondary prevention of addictions.
5 Module: Treatment of Addiction: Pharmacotherapies (20 Credits) (delivered by University of Adelaide) This module is designed to provide an overview of the pharmacological management of alcohol and drug addiction. It covers the management of withdrawal from alcohol, sedatives, opioids, cannabis and stimulants as well as long term management of dependence on opioids, tobacco and alcohol. Additional topics include international perspectives on management of dependence, management of dependence during pregnancy and the process of medication development. Module: Treatment of Addiction: Critical Issues (20 Credits) (delivered by King s College London) This module is designed to enable students to gain advanced understanding of the critical issues involved in the identification, recruitment, assessment, diagnosis and classification of individuals who misuse substances. Local, national and international barriers to treatment (stigma, culture, religion, politics, legal issues, civil commitment, cost, attitudes and beliefs) are considered. Students explore and critically examine treatment options in special settings (for instance, prisons and the workplace) and in special populations (for instance, addicted healthcare professional, co-morbid patients, pregnancy). Module: Research project in the Addictions [incorporates Research Methodology component] (60 Credits) (delivered by University of Adelaide) The Research Methodology component is designed to enable students to develop knowledge and understanding of the different methodological processes underpinning research in addiction. The research principles involved in hypothesis testing and estimation procedures are covered as well as the generic skills necessary to analyze data and interpret statistical findings. Basic epidemiological study designs, policy analysis and inferential statistical methods pertinent to the addictions field are explored. Once the requirements for Research Methodology component have been met, students are given the opportunity to complete a small research project under supervision. The submitted written text will be a minimum of 10,000 words in length, and is required to demonstrate a critical knowledge of the chosen topic area. The ability to apply scientific scrutiny to a topic related to aspects of drug and alcohol aetiology, treatment, prevention, public health or policy as identified by the programme team is required. The research project may involve original data collection, secondary analysis of previously collected data sets, or other quantitative or qualitative research methods. The necessary defining feature is that the research project should demonstrate an appropriate level of academic rigor and understanding of the scientific implications of the findings of the project. Students need to demonstrate competence in the integration and analysis of data to further the translation of this knowledge into more effective policies and practices, in keeping with the stated aims of the programme.
