Bachelor of Psychology (Honours)

Program Overview

Learn about perception, cognition, emotion, personality, behaviour and interpersonal relationships, and how psychologists examine, explain and predict what people do as individuals and in groups.

Your first year is an interprofessional program with students from other health science areas. In your second year you will focus on knowledge in learning, motivation, perception, child development and social psychology.

In your third year you'll develop advanced knowledge in abnormal psychology, adult development, community psychology, cognition, cross-cultural psychology, Indigenous psychology and individual differences. You'll also prepare a research proposal.

In your fourth year you'll complete a comprehensive research project and develop skills in areas such as program evaluation, psychological assessment and counselling. Note that to study the fourth year of this course you must attain a credit average or higher in your second- and third-year core psychology units. If you do not attain the credit average, you'll graduate at the end of the third year with the intermediate award, Bachelor of Science (Psychology).
