The subject of psychology at the University of Trier stands for a broad education with great openness to different perspectives. In addition to a strong research orientation with a focus on scientific thinking, they attach particular importance to practical relevance and thus the application possibilities of the theoretically learned and researched. In addition to technical knowledge, they enable the students to acquire a general analysis and problem-solving skills, with particular emphasis on encouraging students to work independently (i.e. work independently, reflect critically on what they have learned and work ethically).
