Am I required to complete a course in Abnormal Psychology or complete my honours research in a clinical area?
No, Students applying are not required to have completed an empirical research project in the area of Abnormal or Clinical Psychology or Clinical Neuropsychology. The selection process aims to identify students with a demonstrated interest in abnormal or clinical psychology or clinical neuropsychology, an awareness of clinical issues, and relevant experience. This can be demonstrated in a number of ways, for example relevant work experience or a relevant empirical project. Note also that clinical relevance can apply in many areas of Psychology, eg. cognitive psychology, developmental psychology, individual differences, human learning, neuroscience, social psychology.
