Bachelor of Psychology / Bachelor of Science in Physiology (Dual Degree)

Program Overview

The Bachelor of Psychology component of your double degree is designed for those who wish to study psychology and understand the complexities of human behaviour and the biological, psychological and social factors that contribute to individual group and community processes. You will learn about how psychological, social and personality factors influence thinking and behaviour as well as how interventions can be applied to help people lead more satisfying and meaningful lives. This course is accredited by the Australian Psychology Accreditation Council (APAC). Your studies will enable you to pursue a career in a diverse range of fields including research, mental health and welfare, human resources, community services and counselling, education and health services. You could also undertake further steps to qualify to practice as a professional psychologist or pursue a career in counselling, welfare, social work, human resources, marketing or research.

The Bachelor of Science course will provide you with a broad, general science education, as well as specialist training in one or more science disciplines. The flexibility of the course and the wide range of majors and minors will allow you to explore new areas, further develop your strengths in science, and pursue your interests beyond the area in which you specialise. You will receive training in generic competencies - critical thinking, problem solving, quantitative and information literacy, communication and presentation skills, and the capacity to work in teams - and will develop knowledge and skills in at least one science discipline. This will ensure that you have a firm foundation for a career in science or in allied fields where scientific understanding and skills are central.

The Bachelor of Psychology and Science is designed for those with a passion for understanding human thoughts, feelings and behaviour, providing you with a comprehensive education in human psychology.

Through the duration of the course, you will build a strong foundational understanding of the core areas of psychology and equip yourself with the skills that will enable you to pursue diverse pathways into research, mental health and wellbeing, human resources, community services, counselling, education, and health services.


Major: Physiology
Physiology is the study of the way the body functions normally, and in dysfunction and disease. It provides the answers to questions such as how the body works, what happens when we are born and develop, how our body systems adapt when challenged by stresses such as exercise or environmental extremes, and how body functions change in disease states.

The Department of Physiology at Monash is recognised both nationally and internationally as a leader in the field. Undertaking studies in this discipline presents an exceptional opportunity to learn from some of the finest researchers in the world.

From nerves to muscles, from the brain to hormones, physiologists are concerned with functions at all levels. This spans from the molecular and cellular, to the organ and body systems levels, to ultimately provide understanding of the integrated function of the whole body.

Through your studies you will be exposed to research underway at Monash focused on areas that address modern-day issues of health and disease, including:

  • Obesity and diabetes
  • Cardiovascular and kidney physiology
  • Cognitive neurosciences
  • Integrative neurosciences, including the peripheral nervous system
  • Neuroendocrinology, in relation to reproduction, stress and homeostasis.
