Psychology involves the scientific study of behaviour and experience, including thinking, feeling and action.

In our Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Psychology program, you'll explore courses related to the natural, life and social sciences. This blend of courses provides a broad foundation that you can apply to everyday issues ranging from individual variations in sensation to how languages are learned and why some people crave narcotics.
