| What it is | You study how humans behave and think, combining psychology (the science of the mind and behaviour) with anthropology (the study of human cultures and societies). This pairing lets you explore both individual psychology and the broader social and cultural contexts that shape how people act. It suits people curious about why humans do what they do, from personal relationships to entire societies. | This program prepares you to work directly with children and young people who face challenges like trauma, behavioural issues, or family instability. You study psychology and sociology to understand how people develop and what shapes their choices, then learn hands-on skills for supporting and guiding kids in schools, group homes, hospitals, and community agencies. It suits people who want practical caregiving work rather than classroom teaching or clinical therapy. | This program teaches you how people think, behave, and interact — the science behind psychology. You'll study psychological theories and research methods alongside related fields like sociology and social work, giving you a broad understanding of human behaviour and society. It suits students curious about why people do what they do and interested in careers involving counselling, research, or social services. |

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
