Program aims

Please note that the Bachelor of Psychology in Business is not an Australian Psychology Accreditation Council (APAC) accredited program. Graduates from this program will not be eligible to apply for the Bachelor of Science (Honours) or an equivalent APAC accredited 4th year program. BPSB students and graduates who undertake an APAC accredited program at another university may not have the PSY coded courses that they have studied recognised for course credit.

The Bachelor of Psychology in Business aims to produce graduates who have strong interdisciplinary knowledge bases in both psychology and business and who are able to integrate psychological principles with human resource management.

The program offers training and experience that allows students to enter the business and human resource management sectors upon graduation. As such, it focuses on professional business outcomes. A community service learning approach, consistent with the campus theme, will underlie the content and learning processes of the Bachelor of Psychology in Business. It is envisaged that students will have a learning experience that integrates formal study with active community engagement. Students would be assessed in terms of content, skill as well as their community processes, although not necessarily at the same time. This program would be a major advantage in any careers where enhancing and maintaining employee well-being is regarded as crucial strategy for achieving business success.
