Why study Bachelor of Psychology (with Honours)?

This four-year degree is designed for students who wish to study psychology intensively with a view to pursuing a career as a research or professional psychologist.

Students study nine core psychology units accredited by the Australian Psychology Accreditation Council, seven psychology elective units, which allow them to pursue specific interests in psychology, and eight complementary non-psychology units. Students who do not meet the entry requirements for the honours program qualify for the Bachelor of Psychological Science provided they have successfully completed the first three years of the program. These students will be eligible to apply for entry to other fourth year psychology programs at Monash or other universities.
