This bachelor's program provides a comprehensive foundation in Psychology, focusing on the biopsychosocial aspects of human behavior and diverse areas of psychological practice. It introduces students to various theoretical models and intervention strategies while developing methodological, relational, and ethical skills essential to the discipline. The curriculum aligns with the standards of the EuroPsy European Certificate in Psychology, ensuring a recognized level of professional competence across many European countries.

Graduates of this program are prepared for further studies required to become licensed psychologists and can pursue careers in several areas, including Clinical and Health Psychology, Educational and Developmental Psychology, Justice and Deviance Psychology, and Organizational, Social and Work Psychology.

Access to this bachelor's program does not require specific prerequisites. Applicants must have completed secondary education or an equivalent qualification and pass the national entrance exams. They need to complete one of the following exam combinations: Portuguese with either Biology/Geology, Mathematics Applied to Social Sciences (or Mathematics A or B), or Philosophy.

This bachelor's degree offers a solid foundation in the science of human behavior, bridging psychological theory with practical, real-world application. Students explore the core pillars of psychology, including cognition, emotion and motivation, and individual differences in personality, before turning to social and cultural dynamics and the ways culture shapes psychological experience. The program then moves into specialized applied fields such as clinical and health psychology, psychopathology, educational settings, and modern organizations, while building essential research skills in methodology, statistics, and psychometrics alongside professional interpersonal skills in communication, personal growth, and teamwork. At least one project-based course each year gives students hands-on experience solving problems or conducting group research.

The curriculum opens with an introduction to psychology and its history and contemporary issues, an introduction to social psychology, the biological foundations of human behavior, basic psychological skills training, and academic skills, alongside foreign language study that continues throughout the program. The second year builds on this foundation with social psychology, the psychology of emotion and motivation, developmental psychology, critical analysis of psychological research articles, and basic group work skills. The third year introduces personality psychology, cognitive psychology, and an introduction to methodology and statistics, together with an individual project in the form of a psychological essay. The fourth year covers psychopathology, the psychology of individual differences, an introduction to psychometrics, and an individual project built around a psychological interview.

In the fifth year, students study clinical and health psychology, work and organizational psychology, and educational psychology, alongside personal skills training and a group research project, with room for elective coursework. The final year covers ethical dilemmas in psychology, a humanistic perspective on human nature, and cross-cultural psychology, combined with a group project applying psychological knowledge and a broader set of humanistic and psychological electives that let students tailor part of their studies to their own interests. Throughout the program, students take part in general elective coursework in the social sciences and humanities, and physical education is included in the early years of study.

Graduates go on to pursue a wide range of careers, including as psychotherapists, research psychologists, developmental psychologists, human-computer interaction psychologists, business and occupational psychologists, market research psychologists, sports psychologists, and health and wellness psychologists.

Non-EU applicants must demonstrate English language proficiency at a minimum B2 level through a recognized certificate. Accepted options include Cambridge English qualifications such as B2 First, C1 Advanced, or C2 Proficiency; an IELTS score of at least 5.5; a TOEFL iBT score of at least 72; a Pearson Test of English Academic score of at least 59; or a LanguageCert Academic certificate at B2 level or higher, among other recognized international English-language qualifications.

This bachelor's degree offers a comprehensive introduction to the science of human behavior, combining a strong grounding in basic psychological disciplines such as neurophysiology, cognitive psychology, developmental psychology, social psychology, and personality psychology with applied areas including clinical and health psychology, educational psychology, organizational psychology, and forensic psychology. Students build psychological knowledge, learn how that knowledge is generated through quantitative and qualitative research methods, and explore how it can be applied to real challenges in clinical, educational, and organizational settings, with a curriculum built around the first phase of the European EuroPsy standard for psychology education.

In the first year, students build an academic foundation through coursework in communication and self-reflection skills, introductory statistics, human biology and genetics, the history of psychology, early-life developmental psychology, and general and cognitive psychology, alongside an academic skills seminar covering writing, research, and citation. The second semester deepens this foundation with inferential statistics, development across adolescence and adulthood, further work in general and cognitive psychology, sociology, an introduction to the neurophysiological basis of behavior, and philosophy.

The second year turns to individual differences, relationships, and mental health, covering the classification of mental disorders and specific psychopathologies, educational psychology, personality psychology, social psychology, and the logic of scientific research design, alongside a structured week of excursions to professional psychological workplaces. Later coursework in this stage includes advanced personality and social psychology, hands-on research methodology, physiological psychology, academic writing in APA style, and preparation for the bachelor's thesis.

In the final year, students explore psychology in applied, real-world contexts, including organizational psychology, forensic psychology, and the psychology of sexuality, alongside psychological testing and assessment and continued development of their thesis proposal, culminating in field practice or an internship and an independent research project. Throughout the program, students can shape their studies through a wide range of elective courses covering topics such as positive psychology, sport psychology, occupational wellbeing, mindfulness, self-regulated learning, cross-cultural and comparative psychology, neuropsychological and educational assessment, the psychology of negotiation, data science, and interdisciplinary issues such as climate change, terrorism, populism, and gender inequality.

Graduates are prepared to pursue master's study in psychology or related fields and to apply psychological thinking in workplaces such as education, research, human resources, social services, NGOs, and international organizations, with career paths also open in public administration, career counseling, marketing and consumer research, advertising, and public relations.

Admission is based on a single-round evaluation of submitted materials, with no entrance exam or interview. Applicants must submit an official transcript from the second-to-last year of secondary school, with points calculated from the applicant's overall grade point average after conversion to a five-point grading scale; a motivation letter in English of no more than 650 words explaining their interest in psychology, academic and personal development, and career goals; and a structured CV in English documenting relevant academic, professional, or extracurricular activities, with optional supporting materials such as essays or certificates. All applicants must have completed secondary education concluded by a school-leaving examination, and those who completed this education outside the Czech Republic must have their diploma recognized as equivalent, a process that can be completed through standard national recognition, automatic recognition for diplomas from certain countries, or a simplified assessment available only after admission. Admitted applicants must also demonstrate English proficiency at B2 level or higher, shown either through a diploma from a program taught in English or through a recognized English-language certificate such as IELTS, TOEFL, or a Cambridge exam; this proof is required only after admission, not at the application stage.

This one-year master's specialization offers a balanced combination of theory and skills training in both psychotherapy and clinical research, following a scientist-practitioner model that sits at the interface of science and practice. Students build three core competencies: clinical interviewing, including the skills to conduct mental status examinations and classify symptoms into diagnostic categories; basic therapeutic skills for organizing and conducting therapeutic consultations; and scientific thinking, including the ability to evaluate clinical research literature and to formulate research questions, design studies, analyze data, and report findings. The program is structured in roughly equal parts coursework, thesis work, and a clinical internship, with theoretical teaching combined with practical clinical training delivered in small groups, informed by ongoing research into mood disorders, anxiety disorders, traumatic stress, and personality disorders.

Core coursework includes psychopathology and therapeutic skills, which pairs lectures on major psychiatric disorders with supervised practice sessions in essential therapeutic techniques and structured reflection on professional development; experimental clinical psychology, which examines the strengths and weaknesses of observational and treatment evaluation research designs, including randomized clinical trials, for studying the causes and treatment of abnormal behavior; clinical interviewing and assessment, in which students develop diagnostic interviewing skills through sessions with trained actors and learn to report findings both orally and in writing; and cognitive behavior interventions, covering general principles of cognitive behavioral therapy as well as specific techniques such as case formulation, exposure, response prevention, and cognitive restructuring. Students completing a shorter, non-clinical internship also take a set of elective courses to round out their program. Motivated students can additionally pursue extracurricular honours education, such as a year-long leadership program or shorter interdisciplinary challenge courses tackling real-world issues alongside partner organizations.

While this degree does not on its own grant an independent license to practice, graduates who complete a substantial clinical internship fulfill the theoretical and practical requirements to pursue further post-master's training toward becoming a licensed psychologist, and the program can also serve as a strong first step toward work as a trainer, counsellor, or researcher, with some graduates continuing on to doctoral study.

Applicants must hold a bachelor's degree in psychology from a research university, or an equivalent degree subject to review, demonstrating university-level knowledge across introductory psychology, social and organizational psychology, personality psychology, cognitive psychology, neuropsychology or related biological psychology topics, clinical and abnormal psychology, developmental and educational psychology, and training in both interpersonal skills such as interviewing and counseling and in psychodiagnostics. Applicants must also have completed at least 30 credits of advanced coursework relevant to clinical psychology and at least 20 credits in methodology and statistics, covering topics such as psychometrics, multivariate data analysis, and statistical software. Eligible applicants then take part in a selection process assessed on two criteria: their academic record across general psychology, clinical coursework, and methodology and statistics, and a written motivation statement addressing the quality of their reasoning, the connection between their personal motivation and the program's content, and their language skills.

Applicants must also demonstrate English language proficiency, which can be met through an IELTS Academic score of at least 6.5 overall with at least 6.0 in each component, a TOEFL iBT score of at least 90 overall with minimum component scores, or a Cambridge C1 Advanced or C2 Proficiency score of at least 180 overall with no component below 169; test results must be no more than two years old. This requirement is waived for applicants who completed their education in countries such as the United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, Singapore, South Africa, or Malta, who hold an English-taught International Baccalaureate diploma, or who completed a Dutch secondary or English-taught university degree.

This master's degree is a comprehensive professional training program built around a scientist-practitioner model, designed to develop highly skilled, ethical, and reflective clinical psychologists. It integrates advanced academic coursework, supervised clinical training, and original research, preparing graduates for professional clinical practice while building the knowledge, skills, and professional values needed for ethical, evidence-based work with diverse populations. Students also develop the competencies required to design, conduct, and evaluate empirical research, all within small class sizes and close supervision from faculty who remain active in clinical practice and research.

The academic core covers adult and child psychopathology, two courses in advanced statistics and research methods, advanced theories and models of psychotherapy, psychopharmacology, and multicultural issues and diversity. Students then build clinical competence through coursework in assessment and clinical skills with both adults and children, clinical psychometric assessment, and psychological interventions grounded in both dynamic and cognitive-behavioral approaches, alongside coursework in professional issues and ethics in clinical psychology, group therapy, and child therapy. The program's applied training continues through a sequence of practicum seminars and supervised clinical practicum placements across public and private settings, with an additional advanced practicum available as an optional extension. Students also complete an original two-part thesis, developing and carrying out their own empirical research under supervision.

Graduates are prepared for careers as clinical psychologists across a range of public and private settings, including hospitals, mental health centers and community services, clinics and rehabilitation centers, psychiatric services, non-governmental and non-profit organizations, and private or group practice, with the option to become providers within a national healthcare system subject to professional registration requirements. The program also provides a strong foundation for further postgraduate study, including doctoral programs in clinical psychology and related fields.

Applicants must hold, or expect to complete before starting the program, a bachelor's degree in psychology from a recognized university, with a minimum GPA of 3.0, a Second-Class Upper Division Honours result under the British degree system, or a minimum grade of 7.5 under the Greek degree system. Required application materials include a complete curriculum vitae detailing academic and professional activities, three letters of recommendation attesting to the applicant's academic or clinical abilities, a supplemental application form, and a personal essay of 500 to 700 words reflecting on a significant life experience and how it has shaped the applicant's resilience and approach to helping others. Shortlisted applicants are invited to an interview with faculty and advanced students, and candidates are further evaluated on additional qualifications such as publications, relevant seminars, prior practical experience, and other postgraduate credentials in psychology.

Applicants must also demonstrate English language proficiency unless their first degree was taught in English. This can be met through an IELTS score of 6.5 or above, a TOEFL iBT score of 79 or above, a Cambridge First Certificate score of 176 or above or a Proficiency Certificate score of 180 or above, an IB English score of 4 or 5 depending on the course level, a GCSE or IGCSE grade of C or above in English as a first language (or B or above as a second language), or equivalent results on other recognized English-language qualifications. Applicants who do not hold one of these qualifications may instead take a no-cost institutional English placement test and achieve the required minimum level, which can substitute for a standardized test score.
