Psychology

Do you want to be a psychologist who helps others to be positive, balanced and resilient in life? Would you like to use your psychological expertise to design solutions for challenges in the healthcare sector, business, education, or antiterrorism? The Bachelor’s in Psychology will equip you to be a future-oriented psychologist who can effectively respond to the possibilities and risks of new technologies.

WHY PSYCHOLOGY?

The University of Twente is the only university at which you can study psychology with the added dimension of a strong focus on technology. As a Psychology student at UT, you will gain unique knowledge of the different ways in which technology, behaviour and social processes influence each other. You will have an eye for smart tech tools that you can use – or can have developed – in your work as a researcher or care provider, for example, a health app, or a Virtual Reality game.

Whether you set up your own psychology practice or become a pioneer in business, education or government, as a psychologist of the future you will deal with people and organisations that operate across geographical and cultural boundaries. UT offers you a strongly internationalising environment with many international students and staff members as well as highly multidisciplinary projects – all of which will help you develop a unique view of your field.

AFTER YOUR BACHELOR’S

Your adeptness for applying profound psychological knowledge to practical issues, and for designing realistic solutions, will open many unexpected doors for you on the job market. With your unique knowledge of the different ways in which technology, behaviour, and social processes influence each other, you will be able to offer a fresh, valuable approach to whatever work you end up doing.
