Program content and structure
As a bachelor’s student of Psychology, you will acquire basic subject-specific knowledge within six semesters. There is at least one module for each psychological field, and they cover three areas of study: general principles, methods, and applied subjects. Depending on the module, course types may vary and include lectures, exercise courses, and seminars.
During the first three semesters of the program, you will complete most of the general and methodological modules; from the third semester onwards, you will add more and more courses from the applied modules. You can choose three out of four applied subjects and you will also do a mandatory internship, which is part of the career development module. Towards the end of the program, you will write your bachelor’s thesis. In addition, you will choose a minor, which allows you to gain insights into another discipline. Throughout your studies, you are also required to earn research participation credit by taking part in 30 hours of experiments. Spending a semester abroad is possible, though not mandatory.
