Overview
“The 6-semesters-long psychology BA programme provides an introduction to the core fields of psychology: developmental psychology, social psychology, personality psychology and cognitive psychology (which deals with the phenomena of perception, thinking, memory and language). Besides the core fields, students can get acquainted with psychologist professions and the applied fields of psychology. Moreover, there is a great emphasis on the introduction of the methodology of psychology to students. That includes communication skills, reading and comprehending specialized academic literature, developing self-awareness, and general intellectual skills such as academic thinking, problem-solving, and writing skills. The studies also give an introduction to other sciences related to psychology, for example, communication, ethics, law, statistics, and informatics.
