Das Department Psychologie stellt sich vor

Das Department Psychologie bietet eine grundständige Ausbildung in wissenschaftlicher Psychologie mit allen psychologischen Grundlagenfächern und den drei wichtigsten Anwendungsfächern, der Klinischen Psychologie und Psychotherapie, der Arbeits-, Organisations- und Wirtschaftspsychologie sowie der Pädagogischen Psychologie. Wir legen dabei besonderen Wert darauf, dass eine starke Forschungsorientierung mit einer ausgeprägten Anwendungsorientierung kombiniert wird – und das nicht erst im Masterstudium, welches im Wintersemester 2020/21 begonnen hat.

Außerdem erfüllt das Department Psychologie die Anforderungen des Qualitätssiegels für psychologische Bachelorstudiengänge an deutschen Hochschulen, das von der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Psychologie (DGPS) verliehen wird. Zusätzlich richtet sich der Bachelorstudiengang nach den Vorgaben der neuen PsychThAppro und wurde 2020 entsprechend akkreditiert. Der Master Psychologie mit Schwerpunkt klinische Psychologie und Psychotherapie startete mit dem Wintersemester 2023/24.

Inaugural lecture delights audience and review board

Missing data is often considered a nuisance in scientific research. In his inaugural lecture, however, PD Dr. Kristian Kleinke made it clear that it is precisely in these gaps that valuable information can lie hidden. With vivid examples and exciting insights into modern statistics, he took his audience on a surprisingly entertaining journey through the world of data analysis.
