The Master's program in Psychology offers the opportunity to deepen knowledge and skills in psychology and to specialize in a specific area of application. Students can choose to specialize in Environmental Psychology/Human-Technology Interaction, Clinical Neuroscience, or Cognitive Neuroscience .

All specialization programs of the Master's in Psychology consist of a general part, which is identical for all three specializations, and a specialization-specific part. All students acquire in-depth knowledge in the areas of research methods, psychological diagnostics, and clinical psychology. The specialization in Environmental Psychology/Human-Technology Interaction focuses on the interaction between humans, the environment, and technical systems, as well as on the effects of human behavior on the environment. The primary goal is to develop theory-based options for promoting environmentally friendly behavior and sustainable consumption. The Clinical Neuroscience specialization imparts knowledge and skills for the diagnosis, treatment, and investigation of mental disorders and their neurological foundations. The Cognitive Neuroscience specialization focuses on the neuronal foundations of perception, cognition, and emotion, and the associated measurement methods like neuroimaging.
