Course structure

The course develops through two themes :

• 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 .

• 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 .

I ’ ve always been very fascinated at the idea of psychology and understanding the human behaviour , which is one of the main reasons why I took up Monash ’ s Psychological Science course . The degree provided me with in-depth knowledge on a range of branches of psychology , which helped in deciding which field I wanted to venture in for my future studies and career .”
