How to become a psychologist
Overview
Psychology is the study of the human mind and behaviour. If working with people and exploring how they think, feel and behave appeals to you, a career in psychology is a great choice.
There are many specialisations within the field of psychology, but whichever path you follow, you will be applying your specialist knowledge to assess, diagnose, prevent and treat psychological problems.
With further study in one of our accredited masters programs you can gain registration as a professional psychologist.
