Bachelor of Psychology with Honours
Why study the Bachelor of Psychology with Honours at UNE?
The objective of this course is to provide a broad-based education in all parts of the discipline of Psychology over the first three years of the course. This forms the basis for more individual programs of study and research training/experience in the fourth year.
Residential Schools: Psychology units and some subjects offered externally require students to attend compulsory residential schools at the University in Armidale. Details of residential school requirements are published each year in the All Faculties Schedule of Units . Although requirements vary, for many units the normal requirement is attendance at one three-day school at a specified time during the semester. Residential School attendance is mandatory for all core Psychology units.
In addition to meeting the general minimum progress requirements of the Faculty, candidates for the Bachelor of Psychology (Hons) must meet specific minimum grade levels. For details see the University handbook.
