Bachelor Of Psychological Science

The Bachelor of Psychological Sciences is accredited with the Australian Psychology Accreditation Council (APAC) and explores a range of subjects on human thought and behaviour including developmental psychology, cognitive psychology, social psychology, abnormal psychology and personality. Throughout your studies, you’ll develop a solid foundation to equip you with the communication, research, critical thinking and problem-solving skills required to meet the high demand for graduates in psychology. You will also broaden your knowledge with elective subjects throughout first, second and third year. As a graduate, you may work in community welfare and case management, business and industry, youth and family support, the criminal justice system, marketing or research. If you wish to progress to further study and pursue registration as a psychologist, the Bachelor of Psychological Science is a pathway to fourth year programs including the Bachelor of Psychological Sciences (Honours) and the Graduate Diploma of Psychology. Following fourth year studies, you may progress into a masters program, receiving registration as a psychologist upon graduation.
