This major is designed to give students a deeper understanding of the biological, social and cultural factors which influence how humans think, feel and behave. This major is offered to students who want an understanding of psychology to combine with another area of study. Students wishing to register as psychologists should instead take our Australian Psychology Accreditation Council (APAC) accredited Bachelor of Psychological Science course.

Graduates of this major can pursue a diverse range of careers in government and human services organisations, business corporations, and the health sector as well as in media, market research, advertising, public relations and human resources.
