What is Psychology?
Your study
Psychologists are interested in how people think, feel and behave. They
study this at an individual, group, organisational and community level.
Psychologists apply this knowledge to assess, diagnose, prevent, and treat
problems. Psychologists use scientific methods to study the human mind
and behaviour. They develop theories and test them, which provides new
information that adds to the body of established knowledge.
The Bachelor of Psychology is a four-year accredited degree, which offers
students the opportunity to write an honours thesis or take part in a group
research project during their final year.
