Studying Psychology at UniSQ enables you to combine your passion for human behaviour with the chance to study in the areas of human resource management, counselling and behaviour management.
The Psychology Extended major with the Bachelor of Arts is designed with a predominant focus on practitioner skills, which means your skills are aligned with the industry needs practically. It offers a unique blend of benefits that can be both personally and professionally rewarding and can open doors to work in healthcare, education and corporate environments.

We offer courses in three study periods (trimesters) throughout the year to let fast-track through the degree by enrolling full-time in courses in every study period, spread a part-time course load across the full year, or keep a trimester free for work experience or personal commitments.
