Psychology
Master
How can we encourage healthy behaviour or prevent criminal activity? How do people process information? And what makes people trust technology? For many of today’s societal challenges, understanding human thinking and behaviour is essential. In this Master’s, you will explore various psychological perspectives to understand and influence behaviour. You will learn how to combine theory and hands-on practice to tackle complex issues—both now and in the future.
You will specialise in one of five unique tracks and develop your own expertise in areas such as educational, technical or clinical psychology, social safety or mental health. One track prepares you to become a psychologist, while another paves the way for a role as advisor, policy maker or researcher—in government, healthcare, education, industry or the commercial sector.
