Notes
•
On commencing the course and prior to commencing their placement, students must obtain provisional registration with
the Psychology Board of Australia. This registration must be maintained for the duration of the course.
•
*Placement activities are undertaken in Year 1 (full-time) or Years 1 and 2 (part-time) in conjunction with coursework units.
Students commence a log of placement activities from Year 1 and accumulated hours are resulted when enrolled
in EDF5731 in second semester of Year 1 (full-time) or Year 2 (part-time).
•
In Year 2 (full-time) or Years 3 and 4 (part-time), students undertake the remaining two supervised clinical placements in
the field and complete a research thesis on a topic relevant to the discipline of educational and developmental psychology.
•
Some days and hours may be transferred between the three clinical placement units with the permission of the placement
coordinator.
