Overview

The Psychological Science program from Bond University provides students with a scientific understanding of normal psychological processes such as memory, learning, motivation, psychobiology, personality, emotion, developmental psychology and social relationships, as well as training in abnormal psychology. A basic understanding of these topics is acquired across the two introductory subjects before a greater depth of coverage is undertaken within the advanced second and third level subjects.

Students also participate in laboratory work and are introduced to the Australian Psychological Society Code of Ethics. To underpin the scientific nature of the discipline, students receive training in a range of data analytic techniques and research methods used by psychologists. The program is designed to equip graduates with the basic scientific grounding and theoretical understanding required for advanced-level studies.

Career readiness

The Bachelor of Psychological Science opens the door to a wide range of rewarding careers where you can make a real difference in the lives of others: Careers based on helping people suffering from trauma, mental health issues and physical disabilities; or where you can predict and change behaviours or improve performance – on the sporting field, in the workplace and in dealing with everyday life.

With a strong emphasis on critical thinking, communication and analytical skills, undergraduate qualifications in psychology can be applied to careers in private enterprise, government, and community settings. Some of the many possibilities include education (counselling, behaviour management), business (change management and organisational psychology), human resources and career guidance, criminal justice and child protection, sport, exercise and athlete performance, rehabilitation (counselling) and research to name a few.
