The MSc course in Psychology with a focus on clinical psychology and psychotherapy qualifies graduates to work as psychologists and, in particular, as psychotherapists. Graduates fulfil the requirements for admission to the state examination and thus for obtaining the licence to practise medicine. To this end, the Master's degree imparts not only in-depth methodological and scientific knowledge but also theoretical knowledge and, in particular, psychotherapeutic and practical professional skills, with due regard for patient safety and patient rights. The course prepares students for independent work in selected professional fields with a clinical-psychological and psychotherapeutic focus, especially in health and social services, but also in science.
