Psychology is the scientific discipline that employs research methods to study and interpret human behavior and mental processes. Professionally, it applies psychological principles to address real-world behavioral challenges. The curriculum covers key psychological domains including: psychology's historical roots, biological foundations, learning theories, social influences, developmental stages, sensory systems, personality traits, and cognitive functions.
The Graduate Diploma of Psychological Studies, recognized by APAC, fulfills the initial three-year psychology education requirement. This program provides the foundation for pursuing an accredited fourth year in psychology, though it does not constitute that final year itself.
Available as an 18-month full-time or 3-year part-time program.
