Entry requirements

Typical for this university, not this programme's own requirement.

Prerequisites: Entry is limited to 12 students per year. You must have completed a masters degree in health psychology at a recognised university (or equivalent). If you have not completed all of the requirements for a masters degree in health psychology (or similar), but have completed 120 points (one year full-time equivalent study) towards that degree you may, with the approval of the programme director, still enrol for this postgraduate diploma. You must complete the requirements for the masters degree within 12 months of commencing the Postgraduate Diploma in Health Psychology. If you do not, enrolment for the Postgraduate Diploma in Health Psychology will be suspended until you have completed your masters degree. When applying you will be asked to supply a 500-word statement describing your motivation, and two letters of recommendation from academic staff members, employers, or associates who are able to evaluate your academic aptitude and potential to work clinically as a psychologist. Your application documents will be used to determine whether you are shortlisted for an interview. If you are offered a place on the Postgraduate Diploma in Health Psychology, it will be conditional on satisfactory compliance with the Vulnerable Children Act (VCA) and Police Vetting Clearance. You will also be required to undertake health screening.
