The Undergraduate Certificate in Psychology has been designed to provide you with an introduction to mental states and processes, and the ways they affect human behaviour.
Through your studies, you will develop your knowledge of psychology through evidence-based research and critical thinking exercises. You'll build upon your capacity to use scientific literature to solve problems, and develop the strong communication skills necessary to excel in this field.
