The study enables the graduate to acquire a comprehensive set of key knowledge in the field of the basic disciplines of psychology (general, social, developmental psychology, personality psychology). The graduate will also acquire the ability to acquire, analyse and critically evaluate psychological knowledge, as well as the ability to apply it in various areas of social life.
