Details
The Bachelor of Science in Applied Psychology at the European Distance University Hamburg offers a comprehensive program with six new elective specializations in the field of application. The program is based on the framework requirements of the German Society for Psychology and the Professional Association of German Psychologists. Students acquire knowledge in basic subjects of psychology, applied diagnostics, scientific working methods, and interdisciplinary action competences.
There are three out of six selectable application areas that allow for the immediate implementation of acquired competences through professional and experimental internships as well as a practice-oriented thesis. The program is aimed at professionals with a non-psychological first degree, vocational training, or first-time students with (academic) qualifications without professional experience, who are aiming for a basic academic degree in psychology.
The program includes courses such as basics of psychology, diagnostics, scientific methods, and offers various application subjects that enable an individual profile. Students can choose between full-time or part-time studies while working. In addition, there is the option to complete the program as an online evening course with fixed structures and regular webinars. Successful completion awards the academic title "Bachelor of Science" (B.Sc.) and is a prerequisite for professional work in the psychological field after completing a consecutive master's degree.
The program combines the basics of psychology with diagnostics and the methods of a traditional psychology degree in order to integrate various application areas and enable an individual profile.
The accreditation by the Accreditation Council confirms the quality of the program and its relevance for professional practice. The well-thought-out distance learning concept allows working students flexible entry times and organizational options to integrate the study individually into their professional lives. The teaching staff have expertise in their field and didactics, and the connection between research and teaching is guaranteed in all programs.
