Bachelor in Psychology | Bachelor's degree | Humanities & Culture | On Campus | 3 years | Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam | Netherlands

In the VU bachelor Psychology, you will learn how to use various scientific methods to study human behavior and wellbeing. You will learn to understand behavior—how we think, feel and act—and how those processes can go wrong. As a bachelor student you will acquire the methods and knowledge to address questions such as “What makes us who we are?” “What makes a person happy or depressed?", “How do we learn? and “Why do some people have healthy lifestyles and others do not?”. You will learn that such questions are embedded in a broader context of how people develop over the lifespan, how people perceive and make decisions, what drives people, how genetic and environmental influences interact to make us who we are, and how and which interventions or therapies may help people with psychological problems.
