Overview

Justus Liebig University's Faculty of Psychology and Sports Science (Faculty 06) offers this Bachelor of Science as a first degree to qualify for a career in psychology. Through the accumulation of its constituent modules, the programme is intended to impart not only a well-founded overview of the subject but also the skills needed to enter the professional sphere. Students are expected to gain fundamental knowledge of scientific methods and the results of empirical psychological research as well as to be capable of applying this knowledge to issues in research and practice. To this end, the staple of compulsory modules is complemented by a range of electives, in which the theory, methodology and practice of empirical work is taught in greater detail. Further to this training in psychology, interdisciplinary core skills are also taught. This Bachelor programme thus contains a wide range of opportunities for students to prepare and qualify themselves for a career but at the same time provides a good anchorage from which to embark upon a Master's degree.
