New in 2010. The BBehavSc is a new specialist three-year degree program with a broad vocational orientation, designed to equip graduates with knowledge and skills relevant to a range of careers by allowing students to complete a psychology major in conjunction with a major or minor in a related discipline, eg, neuroscience, management, sociology, criminology and human movement. For example, a student interested in working in the area of substance abuse could include a major or minor in health science in conjunction with their psychology major. Students can also choose to complete their second major in behavioural science or behavioural neuroscience. The BBehavSc provides preparation for fourth year study in psychology (honours) and postgraduate study in other areas such as counselling, criminology and corrections, health management, marketing, rehabilitation counselling, and social work.
