School of Psychology

Hello and welcome to the School of Psychology. At the School, we are proud of our traditions of academic rigour, research innovation and teaching quality. We endeavour to provide a learning experience and environment that our students will find stimulating and thought provoking, and that will give lasting value throughout their lives.

Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) - Latest Assessment

Our research teams get encouragement and support spanning traditional school and faculty boundaries. As a result of this we are proud to be one of only four University Psychology institutions being officially rated as performing "well above world standard" (ERA rating of 5). Neurosciences, another discipline our school strongly focusses on was awarded a rating at this highest level as well (one of only three Universities). Psychology and Neurosciences at the Newcastle University are strong and successful fields of research.
