Overview

The Laws and Psychology program offered by Macquarie University builds foundational skills through a set of core units before broadening your knowledge via one of three interdisciplinary majors in cognitive science, counselling or psychological science. Many of your teachers are psychologists who actively practice or consult with major organisations, such as the Australian Defence Force and elite sporting clubs. Their deep research expertise in areas such as mental health, cognition, behaviour, human experience and challenges across the lifespan ensures your learning is tied to real-world insight. When followed by an honours year, this degree is a pathway to postgraduate study, which will enable you to become a qualified psychologist.
