DisciplinesAt Deakin we talk about disciplines, also known as study areas. You might be interested in a particular discipline, but uncertain about the course that’s right for you. Read through these discipline descriptions and, if they interest you, go to the relevant course in the following pages to find out more about the course, what you’ll study, work experience opportunities and the types of careers it may lead to. You can also visit deakin.edu.au for detailed course information, including a description of the units within each degree.

‘The opportunity to volunteer at the Deakin Focus Clinic has been really positive. It has a

strong strengths-based emphasis within a brief intervention family therapy framework. The senior psychologists working at the clinic are also Deakin

lecturing staff, so you are well prepared for when you go on placement. The support and supervision

is amazing, it’s been a safe space for me to learn and reflect on my practice as I develop clinical skills.’

Emma Stephens Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Science graduate

Bachelor of Arts (Honours) (Psychology) graduate Doctor of Psychology (Clinical) student

PsychologyPsychology is a scientific discipline that studies the mind and its processes, behaviour and mental states. There is increasing emphasis on mental health in the modern world and employment prospects in the area continue to grow accordingly.

Studying undergraduate psychology enables you to take two distinct paths: further study in pursuit of full registration as a psychologist, or employment that doesn’t require registration as a psychologist, such as in education or counselling.

Qualified psychologists can work in a variety of settings, including clinical, forensic, organisational, educational, health, clinical neuropsychology, sport and exercise, community and counselling.

The contexts in which you can work are just as varied, including private practice, hospitals, business organisations, schools, universities, government agencies, community sport and various research groups.

You don’t have to go on to full registration to enjoy the benefits of studying psychology. Your understanding of human behaviour and the skills that you develop throughout your course are sought-after by most employers. In fact it is difficult to think of an occupation where a knowledge and understanding of behaviour will not enhance your opportunities. This, together with the critical thinking and communication skills our students develop, make our graduates highly employable in many industries, including community services, counselling, education, health services and protective services.

Our psychology courses are accredited by the Australian Psychology Accreditation Council (APAC) and enable you to undertake additional study in pursuit of professional registration.

CriminologyCriminology investigates how crime can be minimised or prevented by harnessing the insight of a number of disciplines (such as psychology and history). It also examines why some behaviours are defined as criminal and why certain people may become criminals.

Criminologists’ studies are used to help law enforcers apprehend criminals more efficiently and help discover their motives to reduce the likelihood of similar crimes occurring.

Deakin has one of the few dedicated criminology courses in Australia, allowing specialised study for students seeking a career in the criminal justice system. Study topics that you won’t be able to elsewhere – such as security, surveillance, terrorism and policing.

Visit deakin.edu.au/psychology for more information.

Pathways to full registrationTo obtain registration as a provisional psychologist, you need to complete four years of academic study in psychology that is recognised by the Psychology Board of Australia. This usually consists of an approved three-year undergraduate psychology sequence followed by an approved fourth year of study (such as Deakin’s Graduate Diploma of Psychology or an honours year in psychology). You may then apply for provisional registration with the Psychology Board of Australia and associate membership of the Australian Psychological Society (APS).

To gain full registration, provisional psychologists must then complete either two years of supervised practice or a minimum two years of further study (with supervised practice completed outside the degree). It is at this stage that you can specialise in a particular area of psychology that appeals to your interests and career aspirations.
