Lernziele Switzerland is a country with some of the most progressive mental health treatment strategies in the world. However, it has also seen some of the worst outbreaks of mental health disorders in recent history, and a quarter of the population reports suffering from poor mental health. Switzerland is therefore fascinating country in which to study the question of what contributes to our mental health, and the factors which can damage it.
This course provides a detailed analysis of mental health and mental illness. Students will learn about good mental health, mental hygiene in young adults, specific psychiatric and personality disorders. Diagnostic criteria for these disorders will be addressed, and sociocultural components will be explored. Specific attention will be paid to prevalence rates, treatment options, and mental health promotion in Switzerland.
The applied section of this course sees students work in groups and individually on the development of innovative mental health promotion tools and programmes for young adults. Each week, different stages, from conception to testing and funding, will be developed in workshop format.
