    With approval, you may be able to complete the MA(Thesis) in a different subject from your BA(Hons) qualification.

    Note:
    The Child and Family Psychology major has other requirements - see the Regulations for the Master of Arts (Thesis) for more information.

    One or more courses or research may require vaccination

    The government has announced new vaccination requirements for the health and education sectors. At UC, our programmes are strongly connected to our communities of practice. For many of our programmes, you will not be able to complete research or practice-oriented courses if you are not vaccinated. This is due to research/practice taking place in health centres and schools/kura where all employees and volunteers are required to be vaccinated.

    For enrolment in the Child and Family Psychology major, you will be required to be vaccinated in line with the NZ Government regulations, and supply evidence of your vaccination status.

    How to apply

    See Te Kaupeka Toi Tangata | Faculty of Arts website for the MA(Thesis) enrolment process and the application form.
