Psychology for Graduate Students
BACH5321
This unit provides students with an understanding of the major theoretical perspectives, concepts and vocabulary of psychology. Psychology is concerned with the science of human behaviour - how individuals perceive, think about, and behave in the work. It is concerned with identifying the internal determinant (characteristics unique to the person, and part of the physical or psychological make-up) and the external determinants (physical environment and social context) the impact upon the individual. It is also concerned with the way in which people change over time, as well as explaining and predicting what they might do at any one time. The unit aims to position psychology as an essential ingredient in understanding health psychology. This unit is only available to students who have no undergraduate studies in psychology.
