Our psychology students

Nguyen Linh Tu (second-year student in Psychology)
I study human behaviour, emotions and thoughts, developmental psychology, social psychology, and more. This helps me address my own psychological issues and support others. In Vietnam, this field is still new and has a shortage of professionals, so I am confident that there will be many opportunities for development.
Le Ngoc Linh Anh (second-year student in Psychology)
In nearly two years of studying psychology at RMIT, I have not only gained specialised knowledge but also explored diverse fields such as criminal psychology, educational psychology, clinical psychology, and counselling psychology.
Tong Phuong Linh (first-year student in Psychology)
Although I wanted to become a psychology lecturer since high school, it was only when studying Psychology at RMIT that I truly found the motivation to make a firm decision about my career path. This was thanks to the dedicated support and passion for psychology from my lecturers.
Nguyen Thu Minh (third-year student in Psychology)
I really enjoy the blended learning approach, combining online lessons with lecturers in Australia with offline sessions in Vietnam. The pre-recorded lectures allow me to review the materials repeatedly, while in-person debriefings and tutorials provide detailed explanations and interactive activities.
Nguyen My Anh (second-year student in Psychology)
There are many approaches to psychology, and RMIT psychology students learn about all the contemporary methods. The assignments are quite diverse, with a strong emphasis on research, yet still offer opportunities for students to be creative.
