MINOR OR SUPPORTING MAJOR
Bachelor of Science (Psychology) students are required to choose a Minor, or Supporting Major, from a science field, for example, in human biology, human movement, environmental management, or computer science. Psychology, with its focus on human behaviour is ideally suited for study in combination with many other disciplines. There are now psychological specialisations in areas such as clinical, forensic, and community, all of which are offered at Master degree level. Psychology also has applications in emerging areas such as computer science. Students majoring in psychology may wish to discuss their Minor and Elective program with the course coordinator or student support officer.
