Are you fascinated by people’s behaviour and thought patterns?
You’re not alone. Our psychology courses cover a range of perspectives, from personal insights and self-help, to workplace psychology and practical everyday applications. Our psychology courses are taught by a team of passionate tutors looking to share their knowledge with members of the public.
Psychiatry is the medical specialty devoted to the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental disorders. These include various affective, behavioural, cognitive and perceptual abnormalities.
Our psychiatry courses are taught in conjunction with the Discipline of psychiatry, part of Sydney Medical School at the University of Sydney – meaning you’ll gain real insight into this complex but compelling subject.
Both our psychology short courses and our psychiatry short courses are open to everyone. Sign up today and enter the amazing world of the human mind.
