What you will study

The Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Education and Psychology (X316) is an undergraduate program that combines the study of educational theory with psychological principles to understand how people learn, develop, and interact within educational settings. The program is designed to prepare students for careers in education, training, and support services, as well as for further study in teaching or psychology.

Students explore key areas such as developmental psychology, learning theories, educational practices, cognitive psychology, and social behaviour, alongside studies in curriculum development, inclusive education, and educational policy. The curriculum emphasizes the application of psychological knowledge to enhance teaching, learning, and student support across diverse environments.

Through a combination of lectures, practical assignments, and research projects, students develop strong skills in communication, critical thinking, analysis, and problem‑solving. The program also encourages reflection on educational systems and the role of psychology in improving learning outcomes.

Graduates are prepared for roles in education support, training and development, youth work, community services, and educational administration, or for progression to postgraduate study in teaching, psychology, or education-related fields.
