Описание программы обучения "Psychology"
With the completion of the elective profile in psychotherapy, the bachelor's programme in psychology (BSc) meets the requirements of the Approbation Regulations for Psychotherapists (PsychThApprO) as provided in the reformed Psychotherapists Act (PsychThG).
The bachelor's programme in psychology at the University of Münster was awarded the seal of quality of the German Psychological Society (DGPs) in spring 2017. The quality seal verifies that the required application-based, fundamental and methodological subjects are taught to the recommended minimum extent and that there is an appropriate infrastructure (specialist library, laboratory rooms) and staffing (full-time instructors).
Карьерные перспективы по завершению программы обучения "Psychology"
Career goal: Psychotherapist
The legal regulations on psychotherapeutic training have been revised for students starting their studies on or after 1 September 2020. In the future, the licensing examination will take place directly after a bachelor's and master's degree programme, which must be designed in accordance with the requirements of the new licensing regulations (PsychThApprO) and thus prepare students for psychotherapeutic work.
Our BSc Psychology programme meets the requirements of the Approbation Regulations for Psychotherapists (PsychThApprO) upon completion of the elective profile in psychotherapy. The Ministry of Labor, Health and Social Affairs of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia official recognised the degree programme for professional qualification on 31 January 2022 based on the examination regulations of 27 July 2020 in conjunction with the amendment regulations of 15 October 2021.
This means that a BSc degree in psychology entitles the student to apply for admission to a consecutive master's programme in accordance with the Approbation Regulations for Psychotherapists (e.g. MSc Psychology with specialisation in clinical psychology and psychotherapy in Münster).
Following the successful completion of the licensing examination, graduates are required to gain several years of work experience, as well as complete additional training and examinations in order to obtain a certificate of competence in one of the psychotherapy methods recognised by the statutory health insurance sector.
Further information on psychotherapeutic training is provided by the German Psychological Society and the German Federal Ministry of Health.
Career entry after earning a BSc in Psychology
In 2022 an assessment of job advertisements in German-speaking countries came to the following conclusion: "A master's degree in psychology was required for the vast majority of advertised positions." (Richter et al., p. 240). This finding is consistent with the fact that in Germany and Europe, as a rule, only those who have completed a master's degree in psychology after their bachelor's degree are considered adequately trained psychologists. Although it is possible to start a career after earning a BSc in psychology, full access to traditional psychological occupations is generally denied. The position on the labour market is therefore defined more by the completion of an undergraduate, scientific degree programme per se than by one's professional identity as a psychologist.

Учебный план программы обучения "Psychology"
The BSc Psychology programme is divided into 20 modules with their own seminars, lectures and tutorials totalling 180 credit points. Some courses take place on an annual basis and can therefore only be taken in the winter or summer semester. The module courses run for an entire year. Seminars are always ungraded. Lectures conclude with a written exam (usually 90 minutes) or an oral exam (usually 30 minutes).
The introductory module provides an overview of the main subject areas of psychology and psychotherapy, including their historical development and underlying epistemology, theoretical evolution and basic research methods. Basic techniques of scientific work are also taught.
The modules Statistics I and II provide basic knowledge of descriptive and inferential statistics. Theoretical knowledge is applied in the context of computer-assisted data analysis.
In the module Experimental Practical Course, students are taught skills to independently plan, conduct and evaluate an investigation and to write a scientific report based on it.
The module Psychological Diagnostics provides an introduction to the basics and methods of psychological measurement. Further contents include the professional practical execution of diagnostic interviews and questionnaire-based as well as computer-assisted personality and performance diagnostics, including the collection of clinical-anamnestic relevant findings.
The basic modules consist of lectures and seminars in the areas of biological psychology, social psychology, general psychology and cognitive neuroscience, differential and personality psychology, and developmental psychology.
The application-based modules consist of courses in the areas of industrial and organisational psychology, clinical psychology and educational psychology.
The subjects of specialisation in the 5th and 6th semesters are application-oriented seminars with a total of five hours of instruction per week (SWS). Students may register for two areas of specialisation from a choice of three different areas.
Students are also required to complete trial subject hours. This involves participation in psychological experiments or empirical research in the role of a subject. BSc Psychology students must accumulate a total of 30 trial subject hours in order to register for the bachelor's thesis.
During the entire period of study, students are required to gain 390 hours of practical work experience. Psychological activities are to be carried out in order to gain an insight into professional fields and to be able to place psychological knowledge in a practical framework. All information and important requirements for the mandatory internship can be found on our homepage. The Department of Psychology also provides students with an internship database which can be used to search for internship positions.
The bachelor's thesis is an independent research paper that is 20-60 pages in length. The bachelor's thesis can be written in any subject area of psychology and can be supervised by any academic staff member employed at the Institute of Psychology. It is possible to write the bachelor's thesis abroad and in English, if desired.
The overall grade in the final transcript is comprised of the individual module grades. The grade for the bachelor's thesis is included in the calculation with a weight of 1.5, the grades of the two statistics modules each with a weight of 0.5. All other grades are weighted 1:1. The non-psychology electives, on the other hand, are not taken into account in the calculation of the overall grade. There is no evaluation for professional practical activities.
