The Bachelor of Behavioural Science (Psychology) (Honours) is a one-year, APAC-accredited Honours degree that allows you to continue your studies in psychology.
You’ll complete advanced coursework in statistics, theoretical issues, ethics and professional practice, and gain a comprehensive introduction to the legislation that governs the practice of psychology in Australia.
You will also complete a research project and dissertation on an issue or aspect of psychology that interests you.
Successful completion of the Bachelor of Behavioural Science (Psychology) (Honours) enables you to pursue further pathways towards obtaining general registration as a psychologist, including applying for admission to a master’s program.
The entry requirements for admission to the Bachelor of Behavioural Science (Psychology) (Honours) are:
• completion of an Australian Psychology Accreditation Council (APAC)-accredited qualifying psychology degree within the last 10 years. The qualifying degree may be: I. a three year undergraduate psychology degree (or first three years of an accredited four year degree); or II. a Graduate Diploma in psychology for applicants who completed an undergraduate degree in a different discipline; and
• a minimum Credit average in second and third year psychology courses / graduate diploma psychology courses. There is a limited number of honours places available. Selection will be based on applicants’ order of merit on second and third year psychology courses / graduate diploma psychology courses. Thus, a higher than minimum GPA may be required to be offered a place.
For entry into most USC undergraduate degree programs, you need to have completed a minimum level of education similar to successful completion of Australian Year 12 with good grades.
Further studies, for example, a semester or more at college or university, can also be considered for entry and may give you credit transfer towards a degree.
Some examples of upper secondary qualifications and a guide to the minimum grades that USC will consider are listed here. These are minimum requirements and do not guarantee entry. Some programs may require higher grades. Alternative qualifications may also be considered on a case by case basis.
