Overview

How can you promote healthy lifestyles, and take care of mental health and well-being, in times of rising anxiety, depression and burnout rates? What causes (and prevents) criminal behaviour and what’s the best way to negotiate conflicts? And how do people process information and can you support their learning processes? These are just a few of the many, versatile questions you might deal with during the Master’s in Psychology at the University of Twente.

In this Master’s, you will gain insights into various fields of psychology in order to design effective interventions to influence human behaviour. You will be ready to tackle complex present-day and future problems, by combining theoretical knowledge with a hands-on approach. Moreover, the field of psychology is placed in the technological context of our 21st-century society. You will build your expertise within one of the five specialisations.

Careers

As an expert in human behaviour, your proficiency in applying psychological and technological knowledge to solve problems, your solid academic understanding and your specialization, will make you a highly sought-after graduate.
