Pursue your passion for understanding human cognition and behaviour with a Bachelor of Psychology. This degree covers the core sequence of units that will give you a deep understanding of psychological research and practice. Follow your passion by choosing a major stream of study such as neuroscience, or mental health and well-being. You’ll also have the opportunity to build a strong skill set in interpersonal communication, research and writing, programming and statistics, and project management. Over the course of this degree, you will explore the complex biopsychosocial factors that influence human behaviour, gain exposure to evidence-based and culturally informed approaches, and develop your understanding of scientific methodology and its application in psychology.
