Bachelor of Psychological Science

The Bachelor of Psychological Science provides the first three years of full-time (or part-time equivalent) study and training required to prepare graduates for employment in a range of careers that require critical thinking and an understanding of human psychological factors. Many graduates pursue postgraduate training to become registered psychologists to provide clinical services, while others work in psychological research or other community settings. The degree focuses on providing a thorough knowledge of the theoretical basis of psychological science and prepares students to conduct an independent research project. The course strikes a balance between research, theory and application to provide skills relevant to the public and private sectors. Indigenous material is integrated into the curriculum.
