Do I have to do the Masters degree if I finish Psychology Honours, before going to the PhD?
As long you achieved an honours grade of H1 (1st class) or HIIA (2nd class-upper), you are eligible for Ph.D. candidature, provided that you have a supervisor who is willing to take you on. Entry into the D.Psych program requires the same level of honours grades but also involves a selection interview. I understand that entry into a Doctor of Psychology (D.Psych) degree would require a Bachelors Degree with Honours in Psychology. Honours in Psychology is the primary route to entry into the D.Psych programs. To apply for entry to a D.Psych program you will need to achieve a grade of H1 (1st class) or HIIA (2nd class-upper). Another, avenue to the D.Psych would be following a Masters degree in Psychology.
