The Master of Psychology (MPsyc)(Clinical) is designed
to provide the equivalent of the fifth and sixth years of training to
work as a professional psychologist, now required for membership of the
Australian Psychological Society (APS) specialist clinical College of
the Society. The course involves a research project, supervised
practical placements, and course-work which emphasises the acquisition
of professional skills. The program is equivalent to 24 subjects and may
be completed in four semesters of full-time study, although most
students take longer. Admission to the program requires completion of an APS
accredited four-year sequence in psychology, supportive referees'
reports and a successful evaluation interview. Applicants with non-Australian qualifications must
confirm the equivalence of their undergraduate studies with the
Australian Psychological Society by writing to: Director of Membership
