This course prepares psychology graduates for academic/research and professional careers by providing advanced training in both research and the skills required for practice in organisational psychology. It consists of a combination of coursework, supervised practical experience and a major research component culminating in a thesis of about 70,000 words. The course provides overall understanding of the major domains of organisational psychology and skills in assessment procedures including the evaluation, selection and administration of a range of psychometric tests. It links theoretical knowledge with organisational practices. Students develop the skills required to conduct high-quality research and to practise organisational psychology in the community while applying the Psychologists Code of Ethics. The course has been accredited by the Australian Psychology Accreditation Council for the purpose of full membership of the Australian Psychological Society (APS) and has been approved by the APS College of Organisational Psychologists. In general, a further two years of supervised relevant experience will be necessary for registration as a specialist organisational psychologist. On completion of the course, graduates may apply for registration as a psychologist in Victoria. The course is offered on-campus only, although in exceptional circumstances, the Research Graduate School Committee may approve candidates to enrol off-campus.
Eligible graduates may move into professional research careers or practice as Clinical Psychologists.
