The Master of Behaviour and Systemic Change is brought to you by the Monash Sustainable Development Institute (MSDI), in partnership with the Faculty of Science. At MSDI, we recognise that change is not possible unless both people and the structures and systems that people operate within begin working differently. Our work has been our inspiration in developing the Master of Behaviour and Systemic Change, the only known course of its kind in the southern hemisphere.
The Master of Behaviour and Systemic Change is a practical, impact-oriented degree, which brings together powerful, transferable, change-oriented theories from behavioural psychology and economics, social and political sciences and interdisciplinary sustainability studies with grand challenges of our time - climate change, geopolitical security and the health of our communities.
Behavioural and systemic change approaches sit at the core of the course, providing you with a comprehensive set of core studies on the value of adopting an integrated behavioural and systemic approach to change, and an opportunity to learn from, apply and extend cutting-edge practice from experts from MSDI.
