Course Content
This course develops through two themes:
A. Psychology sequence
These studies will address core areas of psychology, including the theoretical and empirical basis of our current understanding of human psychology, brain function and evidence-based approaches to psychological intervention. Building a strong foundation in your understanding of psychology will enable you to appreciate the major challenges in psychology today and in the future.
B. Psychology in practice and society
This is the component of the course where you will choose one of three streams:
- Mental health and wellbeing
- Applied psychology, gender and diversity
- Applied psychology and globalisation.
These streams will enable you to understand and apply a coherent body of knowledge to a range of contexts for the benefit of society in general. You'll also complete a professional practice unit.
