Overview

Throughout the Psychology course from Adelaide University you’ll study the workings of our brains and minds, social influences on our thinking and behaviour, and mental health. You’ll develop skills in research, critical thinking and communication.

Practical learning is a core part of our curriculum. You’ll apply psychology principles to real-life scenarios, even designing behavioural interventions to improve sleep and exercise habits. These hands-on experiences help you build the skills needed for diverse professional roles, preparing you to make a real difference in the field.

By studying psychology, you’ll gain the tools to positively impact individuals and communities, helping to improve mental wellbeing, guide behavioural change and support better outcomes for society.

You’ll graduate confident and ready to step into roles in counselling, community services or research.

Career opportunities:

With a psychology degree, you can support individuals and communities in meaningful and even life-changing ways.

You might become a counsellor, helping people navigate life’s challenges. You could work in community services, providing essential support to those in need. Maybe you’ll contribute to innovative research, exploring human behaviour and improving mental health outcomes.

You can also apply your expertise in fields like marketing, business, advertising, criminal justice, education, healthcare, and the sustainability sector. Or, find work in human resources, where you can use your insights to improve workplace dynamics among staff.

You can also go on to complete further specialised postgraduate study to deepen your skills and career prospects in the field.
