Careers and studying psychology

Psychologists make a real difference in people’s lives, and work in a variety of different areas including mental health, education, business, health, sport and more.

The study of the human mind and behaviour and understanding why we do what we do is unique to psychology. Psychology students learn how to help people lead more satisfying and meaningful lives.

Psychology is a regulated profession, with psychologists required to meet the registration standards set by the Psychology Board of Australia and comply with the APS Code of Ethics.
