Course overview

Understanding how people think and behave is an essential skill in any business. This not only improves the well-being of staff but ensures that ethical decisions are made in line with the organisation's culture and values. For psychologists, strong business skills are essential if looking to establish their own private practice.

A double degree in arts psychology and business equips you with problem-solving skills, empathy, and strategic thinking for a successful career in a wide range of business and mental health roles.

The Bachelor of Arts (Psychology) is the first stage of qualification required to work as a professional psychologist. Throughout the Bachelor of Arts (Psychology) you will undertake the scientific study of the human mind and its functions, especially those affecting behaviour. This degree provides comprehensive, foundational knowledge in the processes basic to human psychological functioning.

In the Bachelor of Business, you will gain practical, real-world experience and make professional connections. You will develop core skills across all business functions, as you build specialist knowledge in a chosen field to excel in today's dynamic and complex business environment.
