COURSE DESCRIPTION

Psychologists help us to understand who we are and how we think, feel, act and change through the scientific study of the human mind, its functions, and how they influence behaviour.

The Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) is a four-year undergraduate honours degree which provides comprehensive training in the scientific study of human behaviour and experience, the physiological, sensory and cognitive processes that underlie it, and how the profession applies this knowledge to practical problems.

The degree contains a significant research thesis along with coursework where you will learn how the science and practice of psychology is influenced by social, historical, professional and cultural contexts, and knowledge of ethical behaviour.

The Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) is a route to postgraduate coursework or research degrees in psychology and is also a partial qualification for provisional registration as a psychologist with the Psychology Board of Australia.

Additionally, the Northfields (Psychology) Clinic on campus provides hands-on practice with clients for both the Master of Psychology (Clinical) and Master of Professional Psychology students.

Accreditation & professional recognition: The Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) is accredited by the Australian Psychology Accreditation Council and is required to apply for provisional registration as a psychologist in Australia. An additional two years of education and training is necessary to apply for general registration. This can be through a fifth year at University plus one year of supervised practice in the community or an approved postgraduate degree accredited at the fifth and sixth year level. You can find more information on general registration pathways on the Psychology Board of Australia website.

Career opportunities: Personnel Services; Human Resources; Organisational Behaviour; Government Agencies or Private Enterprise; Industrial Relations; Data Analyst; Life Coach; Brand Manager; Marketing And Advertising; Educational Officer; Developmental Officer; Community or Social Services
