DOCTOR OF PSYCHOLOGY<br />
Course Code U71<br />
The Doctor of Psychology course combines coursework in an area<br />
of professional practice in Psychology with additional placements<br />
and research experience to that found in the Master of Psychology<br />
course. Candidates specialise in one of the following Psychology<br />
areas: Clinical Forensic, Community or Clinical.<br />
SATISFACTORY PROGRESS<br />
Students who enrol part-time are expected to take a minimum of<br />
six hours coursework per week. Part-time students should consult<br />
the stream coordinator regarding the recommended units for each<br />
semester.<br />
Any student who has not completed and submitted their research<br />
project within the normal period of time will re-enrol in PSY6286<br />
until the project is submitted.<br />
COURSE REQUIREMENTS<br />
Normally the course will be completed over three years of fulltime<br />
study or the equivalent period of part-time study. All years<br />
of the course involve coursework, practical experience in<br />
structured placements, and the preparatory work on the thesis. An<br />
initial supervisor will oversee the production of the thesis<br />
proposal, and a supervisory panel will assist the development and<br />
production of the student’s research. Students are required to<br />
make satisfactory progress in each semester for their doctoral<br />
thesis units. Students with unsatisfactory progress will not be<br />
allowed to remain in the course.<br />
Any student who wishes to register as a psychologist within<br />
Australia or to join a College of the Australian Psychological<br />
Society should consult the course coordinator to learn the<br />
additional course requirements. Similarly, any student who<br />
wishes to practise as a psychologist in another country should<br />
consult the professional regulatory bodies in that country to learn<br />
of the necessary requirements.<br />
