The higher the degree qualification, the better the starting position.

Additional University Benefits

• Receive a signing bonus when joining the career with an eligible Psychology degree.

• Higher degree qualifications can provide stronger starting career benefits.

• Signing bonus protection prevents repeatedly collecting the same degree-related bonus by leaving and rejoining the career.
