Subject Descriptions

Overview

Psychology subjects are offered by the School of Behavioural Science in the Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry and Health Sciences.

Studies in Psychology contribute to the preparation of a classroom teacher and also provide the initial training of a psychologist. The complete sequence available to students enrolled in the BEd(Secondary), BEd(Primary) and BSocSc(InfoMgt) courses has been accredited by the Australian Psychological Society. Thus students who complete this sequence may, with further study, become psychologists. Students completing BEd (Primary) or BEd (Secondary) courses therefore may have the opportunity to enter two allied professions-teaching and, with further study, Psychology.

Faculty of Education students who have completed Psychology 1 (512-100) should enrol in Psychology 2 (512-200), those who have completed Psychology 2 (512-200) should enrol in Psychology 3A (512-300). If you are not able to enrol in a 50 point subject in third year then you should enrol in Psychology 3D (512-304) in the third year of your studies and plan to enrol in Psychology 3E (512-305) in the fourth year of your studies.

Departmental Requirements: Prerequisites are listed in individual subject descriptions. The following subjects are available in 1996: Psychology 1 (512-100), 2 (512-200), 3A (512-300), *3D (512-304), and *3E (512-305).

*: These subjects are only available to Faculty of Education students.

Studies in Psychology have proved to be extremely popular. In order to maintain the quality of the subject and the level of practical involvement within the available resources, there is a quota for selection into Psychology 1 and 2. Admission into Psychology 2 will be assessed on academic merit, with reference to Psychology 1 results.
