International two-year master’s program in psychology

From Fall semester 2020, the Department of Psychology will start its new International two-year master’s programme in psychology. The programme’s overall objective is to provide a broad and in-depth knowledge base within the field of psychology. Courses are offered, for example, in social psychology, evolutionary psychology, cognition, biological psychology, developmental psychology and work and organizational psychology. The programme includes research methodology, which may be of use in the labour market in general, but also as a preparation for further studies at the doctoral level within psychology. The programme is a coherent degree programme that comprises 120 credits, meaning four semesters of full-time studies. The programme consists of four main blocks: Block A: 30 credits of compulsory courses Block B: 30 credits of elective courses in psychology Block C: 30 credits of entirely elective courses Block D: Master’s thesis (30 credits) The programme gives a range of courses in Psychology but it is also possible to combine these studies with courses in other subject areas, at other Universities (in Sweden or in another country).
