Bachelor of Psychology

Psychology is about all of us. Our lived experiences, our feelings, thoughts, behaviours, understandings, interactions, and decisions. It's also about the way we live with ourselves and others.

Our degree in psychology is designed for students with a humanities or science background and is a bridge to many different employment opportunities, including in mental health, human resources, child and family services, youth work, alcohol and drug counselling, rehabilitation and disability, migrant support or research and policy development. It will equip you with skills in analysing and researching behaviour and explaining interactions between people and their environment, learning from expert academics, researchers and practitioners.
This course is accredited with the Australian Psychology Accreditation Council and recognised internationally. When you graduate, you'll have a pathway to Honours and postgraduate studies, leading to registration as a psychologist.
