Psychology

Psychology is the study of the behaviour and experience of humans, including the effect of brain function on behaviour, social interaction, life's developmental stages, and how we perceive, think and learn. Methods used to gather information about such topics are an important component of studies in Psychology.

Through this aspect of their work students develop specific skills in the implementation and reporting of research to add to the general skills in oral and written communication developed throughout their studies. 

Psychology is an Australian Psychological Accreditation Council accredited sequence within the Bachelor of Psychological Science, BA and the BA(RSW) at the University of Ballarat

Psychology Clinic

The School of Behavioural & Social Sciences & Humanities of the University of Ballarat has established a psychology clinic, called the University of Ballarat (UB) Psychology Clinic. The UB Psychology Clinic provides psychological services mainly for children and adolescents. In most instances psychological services will be provided by postgraduate psychology students of the University of Ballarat, who are currently undertaking the Master of Psychology and Doctor of Psychology training programmes in clinical psychology. These students are registered probationary psychologists. All services provided by these students are closely supervised by a team of highly experienced registered psychologists, who have doctoral level professional qualifications in clinical psychology, including child and adolescent clinical and educational psychology.
