This online degree is the only one of its kind in Australia. It brings together two powerful disciplinary perspectives on how we live as social beings.  

How does psychology explain human behaviour? What can sociology add? How do these dimensions come together in everyday life? 

You'll be challenged to think deeply about the world we live in. Explore the way individuals, groups and communities behave, think, react and interact. Study gender and identity, social divisions and the significance of popular culture in modern society.  

You’ll examine the connections between human behaviour, social structures and social policy. Discover how these relationships shape individuals, families, communities and organisations. Apply your learning to real-life scenarios and case studies. 

You’ll graduate with a complementary skillset that the industry is telling us they need. You’ll be equipped to make the most of the growing employment opportunities created by the NDIS.


Note: Students wishing to become a registered psychologist will need to undertake further study after completion of this program. Students would need to apply for a Graduate Diploma in Psychology (Program code: XGDPS), followed by either Graduate Diploma in Psychology (Advanced) (Program code: XGDPA) or a Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) 1 year (Program code: HBPSY), and a Master of Psychology program (Master of Psychology (Clinical) - Program code: MAPSC; Master of Psychology (Health) - Program code: MAPSH; Master of Psychology (Organisational and Human Factors) - Program code: MAPSO).
