ABOUT THE PROGRAMME

Love exploring the motivations behind people’s thoughts and actions?

Psychology is the study of human behaviour and mental processes, encompassing many aspects of human behaviour from individual differences in personality and intelligence, to emotions, motivations, memory, thought processes and interpersonal relationships. As an applied discipline, it is aligned to a professional career as a “Psychologist”.

A Psychology Degree programme equips students with broad theoretical and practical knowledge of Psychology, as well as job-ready skills in analysis, writing, research, communication and teamwork.

At Murdoch University, our Degree programme goes a step further, integrating the established basis of psychological knowledge and methods of investigation, with the latest developments in the field. It also allows students to enhance their learning by studying minors in related areas such as Criminal Psychology, Human Resources and Ethics as well.

With a Psychology Degree, you will be well-versed in human cognition and motivations, and capable of exploring the wide range of career opportunities in this diverse field.

Students have the option to enrol in either Single or Double Majors.

Students who successfully complete and pass the modules stipulated in the programme structure will be awarded the Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Global Media and Communication from Murdoch University, Australia.

The Degree will be the same as that awarded to the on-campus graduates in Australia.

Students will attend a combination of lectures, tutorials and workshops in this programme and have the flexibility to plan their study schedule based on their study load. Students are expected to be on campus for classes, workshops and self-study.
 
The Pro Vice Chancellor of Transnational Education & Singapore Dean at Murdoch University is based in Singapore to oversee all academic aspects and to ensure a high standard of academic delivery.
