Psychology Honours

Why study Psychology Honours?

Honours is the necessary preparation for further training that enables entry into professional practice, such as the Master of Professional Psychology. The Bachelor of Psychological Science with Honours is an accredited course that provides students with advanced and integrated knowledge in psychology, experience and competence in conducting research.

An Honours year is also designed for undergraduate students to develop pre-professional skills as well as skills and interests in independent research. Your research thesis is a large part of the Honours year and will allow you to contribute original knowledge to your discipline. It may be published in peer-reviewed journals and presented at academic conferences.

Plus, you’ll join the Faculty of Health's renowned research community and work alongside researchers who are making a difference to people’s health and wellbeing.

An Honours degree can launch your career in research and academia. It is also the stepping stone to a PhD.
