When I thought about studying abroad, I worried about the distance between me and my loved ones, and losing my friends at home. But the truth is I made so many new friends from all around the world, gained so many amazing memories and learned a lot about myself. The programme has something for everyone and expands your hori- zons. Your English skills will improve in no time while learning about the different fields of psycho- logy. It will be challenging but in a good way, and the university will guide you every step of the way.
Lisanne Riemenschneider Germany Psychology
Our scientific knowledge and insights in mental and physical human behaviour in society contribute to lead a healthy, active and meaningful life for everyone at any age. It s our faculty s mission to play a leading role in understanding how behaviour comes about and how it can be influenced. Therefore we use our unique resources and expertise to facilitate high-quality, interdisciplinary research and education in a diverse, open, safe and sustainable environment, to address the major societal needs related to our field.
Why study at this faculty? We conduct top research that pushes theoretical and methodical boundaries, including advanced techniques for detailed and large-scale data collection (e.g. genotyping, neuro-imaging, 3D motion recording, e-mental health applications), data analysis, storage and management. The faculty also has several prominent researchers in its ranks who play a pioneering role in their field.
Your future career You will have various career opportunities, for instance in applied research at a rehabilitation centre or sports institution, or in vocational education in sports or healthcare.
But you can also end up in the corporate world as a Human Resource Manager. However, a lot of students choose to broaden their knowledge with a Master s programme before entering the job market.
Specific admission requirements The Bachelor's programme in Psychology has a Numerus Fixus, which means there are limited spots available. You can apply for the 2022-2023 cohort until January 2022. The exact date will be published in autumn 2021.
