About Applied Psychology (Professional), MAppPsy - at Murdoch University
If you're working towards becoming a registered psychologist and have completed your fourth year, this course provides you with the first step required in the 5+1 pathway.
You'll undertake coursework, practicum, and research to gain specialised knowledge of psychological practice. Gain the work-ready skills in assessment (e.g. Mental State Exam, WAIS) and intervention (e.g. CBT, family-based interventions) all based on the latest psychological approaches and research findings in a supportive learning environment.
Develop the personal and professional skills you need in practice by completing two practicums, either within our on-campus clinic, or through an internship at an external workplace. If you're already working in a psychology setting, you may undertake practical experience at your own workplace (by arrangement with the practicum co-ordinator). You'll be guided in your development of clinical-based learning through placements in Murdoch's on-campus psychology clinic.
This course provides a pathway into the Master of Applied Psychology (Clinical Psychology) based on performance and availability of places. There is also a school stream in the degree, which allows you to be employed within the Education Department of WA as a School Psychologist.
Entry to this course is very competitive and requires a recognised and accredited undergraduate psychology degree, plus either Honours in Psychology (with at least 2A Honours), a Graduate Diploma in Psychology (with a distinction average), or a Bachelor of Psychology with evidence of relevant experience in the field.
