About this qualification

Here is what the Bachelor of Psychological Science/Bachelor of Social Science qualification offered by University of Newcastle covers and who it is designed for.

Build a rewarding career that impacts individuals and communities by combining your Bachelor of Psychological Science with the Bachelor of Social Science. Learn the function of the human mind and its impact on behaviour while investigating social issues and how you can deliver change that matters.

The Bachelor of Psychological Science is the first stage of qualification required to work as a professional psychologist. This degree alone will not qualify you to be a practicing psychologist, rather it provides comprehensive, foundational knowledge in the processes basic to human psychological functioning.

The social sciences promote social justice by exploring how practices, policies and structures contribute to social disadvantage and injustice. Social science equips you to become a change-maker of tomorrow. To do this, the Bachelor of Social Science embeds Indigenous knowledges and content, and subjects that will develop your understanding of social inequalities impacting on the health and wellbeing of individuals, families and communities.
