The Graduate Diploma in Psychology allows students who hold a degree in an area other than psychology to become eligible to apply for admission to the Psychology Honours program at Flinders without completing a second undergraduate degree. It may also be suitable for graduates who completed a psychology major seven or more years ago or who qualified at an overseas institution.
Further information about the Graduate Diploma and how to apply can be found at: www.socsci.flinders.edu.au/psyc/courses/graddip
The Master of Psychology (Clinical) prepares graduates as clinical practitioners in psychology. The program combines coursework, practical experience under supervision and a research orientation to problem solving. Part-time (no less than half-time) is possible if suitable arrangements can be made.
The full program of study is set out in the course rule and topic descriptions for the relevant degree(s).
* Advanced studies are provided through the Doctor of Philosophy (Clinical Psychology), which involves coursework and a thesis - see separate entry.
