The School is delighted to announce a new masters program that will commence in early 2018. The Master of Applied Psychology (MAP), which takes 1.5 years to complete full-time, is aimed at students who have graduated with a three-year psychology major who aspire to careers in social and market research, consumer behaviour, consulting, and health behaviour change in the commercial, public and non-profit sectors. The MAP will include coursework in advanced social psychology; attitude and behaviour change; influence and persuasion; judgment and decision-making; consumer psychology and psychology of advertising; quantitative methods and applied research methods; and wellbeing interventions. It will also have an optional workplace internship or research project.
