Psychology

What makes you, me, our whole society tick?

Psychology is the systematic study of human behaviour and experience. It involves basic research, as well as the application of research in clinical, organisational, community, and other contexts.

There are many distinct aspects of psychology, including the study of thinking and remembering, neurological processes, personality, health and illness, development across the life-span, and the interactions within and between groups. As a Psychologist you can play a crucial role in maintaining the health and well-being of individuals, organisations and communities.

As a Psychology student at Murdoch you will be exposed to a thorough coverage of all aspects of the discipline of psychology, including the study of abnormal, developmental, social, cognitive, learning, and perceptual processes.

The course differs from psychology courses at other universities in its relative emphasis on the applied, developmental, and social aspects of psychology. In addition to studying specific content areas, you will also learn how to conduct quantitative and qualitative research and how to apply basic practical research, reporting, and analytical skills to psychological issues.
