The content on this page was translated automatically.
The Bachelor's degree program in Psychology is modularized and consists of 21 modules (including 1 non-psychological compulsory elective module and the career-oriented internship). The courses are based on the fundamentals and fields of application of psychology.
After an introduction to the systematics and methods of psychology and the basic subjects, an overview of the fields of application of psychology is provided. From the 4th semester onwards, a career-oriented internship is planned, which is intended to provide an initial introduction to practical activities. The rest of the course includes in-depth modules and the Bachelor's thesis at the end of the course.
Study plan
Each of the 21 modules is associated with a certain amount ofwork (workload). 1 credit corresponds to a workload of approx. 30 hours. The entire Bachelor's program comprises 180 credits.
Active participation in the courses as (ungraded) coursework is just as relevant for passing the module as the (graded) examinations. Examinations usually take the form of written examinations, term papers or oral examinations. Ungraded coursework includes, for example Preparation of minutes, presentations, seminar presentations.
Further information
The module coordinator will provide information about courses offered for module 19(non-psychological elective module).
The credits completed there must be certified by the respective lecturer(form)and submitted to the examination office (IfP, Ms. Braun).
Please note the information on this module in the examination regulations/module handbook. In most degree programs, two courses must be attended (see module descriptions). In one of the two courses, you must complete a course assignment and in the other a graded examination. The examination results in the final module grade. Check the module description to see which types of courses may be attended. In other degree programs, it is sometimes common that graded examinations can also be taken in seminars; please enquire about the modalities with the respective lecturers in advance.
For courses in the field of sports science or sociology, please contact the course coordinator, as there are participant restrictions.
Please be aware before registering that credits earned in other subject areas will be assessed as 8 credits in the Psychology degree program, even if the actual number of credits earned is higher.
