Are you a high achieving psychology student, want to distinguish yourself from other graduates, and pursue a rewarding career as a clinical psychologist or in other professions? If you answered yes, then the Bachelor of Psychological Science (Honours) could be the next step for you. The Honours program is the most common critical steppingstone towards becoming a registered Clinical Psychologist. However, this course also opens the doors to an exciting range of valuable specialised graduate and postgraduate studies, as well as to higher research degrees, such as a PhD.

The Bachelor of Psychological Science Honours is a one-year course that is accredited by the Australian Psychology Accreditation Council (APAC), and recognised by the Australian Psychological Society (APS). This Honours program gives you an opportunity to acquire expertise and skills that are highly valued by employers in human-centred professions. The Honours program will give you access to developing an in-depth understanding of psychological theories and practice, and the opportunity to design, conduct, interpret and communicate research.

The expertise and skills that you can gain in the Honours program will give you access to better understanding yourself, growing and enhancing your well-being, creating healthier and more empowering relationships, adapting to changes in your personal and professional environments, and empowering other people. The knowledge and skills you can acquire in the Honours program are designed to prepare you for careers in a wide range of areas in private and government organisations.

We actively encourage applications from First Nations Australians who have completed an APAC accredited three-year undergraduate sequence in Psychology. We understand that undertaking further study can involve a significant financial challenge, and as such we encourage First Nations applicants who have a passion for and commitment to the study of Psychology to contact the College of Health and Human Sciences in relation to accessing financial support.
