Psychology

Why do you check your phone every minute? How do TikTok trends influence your choices? Psychology does not begin in a thick textbook, but is present everywhere in your daily life. In the Bachelor's programme in Psychology at VU Amsterdam, you will learn to analyse behaviour from multiple perspectives: from the brain and emotions to social media and peer pressure. This means you will not only become a specialist in one area, but you will also develop a broad perspective that will enable you to understand patterns in human behaviour. Everything you learn can be directly applied to today's social challenges. This will enable you to make a real difference and have an impact later on, whether as a clinical psychologist, policy advisor or scientist.
