Welcome

We welcome you to the School of Psychology website.
 

The School was established in 1994 and is now a major centre for psychological education, training and research. The School has a strong focus on psychology and its practice.  We offer a broad range of undergraduate courses in the major areas of psychology and counselling. These courses are designed to develop interpersonal skills and awareness, critical thinking, and written and oral communication. Our postgraduate programs in counselling and clinical, organisational and forensic psychology provide intensive professional training, and our PhD program offers the opportunity for advanced study in a range of specialised research fields.

A distinguishing characteristic of the School is its academic staff and expertise.  Members of the School undertake research in a diverse range of topics such as stress in the workplace, the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions in prisons, the reliability of internet based information, fatigue management, psychology and working with indigenous peoples, sleep and brain plasticity, changing human attitudes to animal and habitat conservation, workplace bullying, the effects of the media on young people and much more.

We are proud to include a strong multicultural emphasis and embrace cultural and ethnic diversity.
