Bachelor in Psychology

The growing awareness of the importance of mental health has highlighted the need for more qualified psychologists in Spain. Our Bachelor´s Degree in Psychology has been designed to encompass both a global and multidisciplinary perspective as well as the most specific aspects of the profession. UNIE’s Psychology program provides an approach to understanding human behavior starting from a broad and multidisciplinary perspective and moving toward the specificities of the psychology profession. The curriculum also includes elective subjects focused on the most in-demand professional fields today. Additionally, the inclusion of the Health Psychology track will allow you, if you wish, to access the Master’s Degree in General Health Psychology

This is an official degree program accessible via Baccalaureate, University Entrance Exams (PAU/EVAU), Advanced Vocational Training (FP Superior), or a university degree. It is especially recommended for students with previous studies in related areas.
