Make a meaningful difference in people's lives

Understanding people is one of the most powerful skills you can have. As mental health needs grow and the demand for qualified professionals rises, those who can connect, support and create meaningful change are needed more than ever.

UNSW's psychology and counselling programs equip you with the knowledge and practical skills to meet that need. Build a science-backed foundation in human behaviour with our APAC-accredited Graduate Diploma in Psychology, or train as a fully accredited counsellor through the evidence-informed Master of Counselling. Either way, you'll be guided by academics who are recognised practitioners in their fields, learning in a way that's as personally transformative as it is professionally rigorous.

Understand what drives human behaviour at work and apply that insight to build better organisations. The UNSW Online Business Psychology programs draw on applied psychology, decision science, people leadership and organisational strategy to give you a practical, evidence-based skill set you can use to enact lasting change.

Choose the qualification level that suits your goals, whether you're building foundational knowledge with a graduate certificate, deepening your expertise with a graduate diploma or developing advanced capability with a master's degree.

Designed for working professionals, our postgraduate programs equip you with the skills to lead people, influence decisions and drive meaningful change across a wide range of industries and roles.
