Psychology (B.Sc.)

In the Bachelor's Programme in Psychology, students will acquire sound knowledge in fundamental subjects of psychology as well as basic knowledge in its applied disciplines. This provides students with general and subject-specific occupational skills necessary for the changeover into the working world. They will learn the main correlations of psychology and to apply scientific methods and findings. The bachelor's degree is also the requirement for participation in a master's programme.

These goals are achieved by connecting theoretical contents with practice-oriented topics, so that students receive fundamental scientific knowledge as well as occupational skills. In addition, students will acquire key competencies for a successful career start. Through active participation in courses and hands-on psychological work, students acquire knowledge and skills with which they can recognize psychological tasks, formulate factually founded potential solutions and appropriately realize these. Methodological competencies (especially in research methods and statistics, computer-aided data collection, data analysis and presentation as well as diagnostic basics and procedures) are conveyed predominantly in specialized modules. Aside from textual knowledge, the students acquire social and personal competencies that are also important for professional work.
