What more do we offer our students?

Certified quality

The BAP follows the recommendations of the German Society for Psychology (DGPs) and in 2017 it was one of the very first study programmes in psychology to be awarded the DGP’s seal of quality.

Resolutely international

The BAP is a trilingual study programme with courses taught in German, French and English by our international teaching staff.

Outstanding support

Each year we accept a maximum of 80 students in order to guarantee a lecturer-student ration conducive to learning as well as the best possible support for students. For example, each student is individually prepared for their semester abroad, so that they can make the most of their time abroad. We encourage student engagement and support our students in this too.
