Special features regarding teaching
Teaching at our institute is structured with a focus on research and practical application. Students are involved in ongoing research projects at an early stage and have the opportunity to undergo practical training during the Bachelor's degree. We offer our students a variety of specialisation options which allow them to pursue their individual interests. Affiliated with this are the postgraduate courses in Psychological Psychotherapy and Paediatric and Adolescent Psychotherapy. An outpatient psychotherapy clinic is part of the institute.

Special features regarding the international orientation
The degree course can therefore be structured in such a way that stays abroad and overseas work placements can be combined. The International Office helps with organisation, and the eligibility of the credits gained abroad is checked ahead of time. In addition, international professorial partnerships are in place which students can benefit from.

This introduction has been regarded as the best event for new students for years (according to surveys of all participants). The overall organisation of the course always receives positive ratings.
