This course is offered to undergraduates who wish to complete an Australian Psychological Society (APS)-accredited undergraduate major in psychology while undertaking a concurrent Monash undergraduate degree. The course is available only to students enrolled in degrees where it is not possible to study the 60-point APS-accredited major sequence. Students must enrol in the diploma in their first year, or not later than the first semester of the second year of their concurrent degree.
The
course structure is identical to the 60-point undergraduate major sequence in
psychology in which students must complete 10 six-point units (nine core units
and one elective unit).
Off-campus learning students must complete the required minimum hours of
on-campus weekend school laboratory for each unit.
Students may take the elective unit at second or third year. Some third-year electives may be undertaken at second year, providing prerequisites and corequisites are met. The electives offered may vary from year to year depending on staff availability. Some electives are available by off-campus learning mode.
Students completing a degree with a 60-point APS-accredited undergraduate major sequence in psychology will be eligible to apply for entry to a fourth year in psychology through an honours year, or the Postgraduate Diploma in Psychology. Masters and doctoral degrees are available by coursework and/or research after completion of a fourth year of study in psychology.
