The course combines the study of psychology with a vocational qualification in social and community welfare. Students complete a sequence in social and community welfare, a major in psychology and an arts minor. Students will graduate with a major in psychology that is recognised by the Australian Psychological Society, and will also possess a full welfare qualification recognised by the Australian Institute of Welfare and Community Work.
Graduates are able to pursue careers in social and community services, counselling, social welfare and social research and administration, or, with further education and training, may work as psychologists.
