Business Psychology (B.Sc.)

The business psychology course (Bachelor of Science) takes into account knowledge from science and practice that the human factor is essential for the successful development and implementation of business ideas. This includes highly motivated employees and well-functioning teams in a pleasant working atmosphere as well as brands that meet the needs of customers and structures that take into account how human perception, memory and thinking work.

The Business Psychology (B.Sc.) course, which will begin for the first time in the 2020/21 winter semester, therefore includes both the necessary knowledge from the field of economics as well as extensive knowledge from the field of psychology and brings both together into an overall perspective. The course with a standard study period of seven semesters including a practical semester is characterized by the combination of well-founded economic, psychological and methodological principles with many practical modules on application-relevant fields.
