Master of Applied Behaviour Analysis

The Master of Applied Behaviour Analysis provides students with comprehensive and flexible training in applied behaviour analysis. The principles of ABA underpin most evidence-based interventions and practices in the fields of education and disability and can be applied to any life situation in which the aim is to learn new skills, enhance individual or team performance, or to understand and reduce behaviours that challenge.

This degree program is relevant to students wishing to apply knowledge of these principles and practices to their current work (for example, teachers, early intervention workers, allied health professionals, managers, principals) as well as those who ultimately want to pursue accreditation as a behaviour practitioner.
