- Description/content
- If you are looking to address the pressing sustainability transformation in social, economic, and environmental issues through the lens of a psychological perspective, the double-degree Master's in Psychology and Sustainability in cooperation with the University of Groningen in the Netherlands is for you.
This two-year programme covers both human perception and behaviour related to sustainable development and the interplay between humans and their natural and built environments. These distinct perspectives complement one another so that the double-degree programme provides unique insights into psychological processes that are involved in the broad transformation towards intersectional and intergenerational justice.
Transdisciplinarity is a key component of this double-degree programme. The faculties work closely together to approach the topic of sustainable development from a transdisciplinary perspective. You will have the chance to be involved as part of empirical studies, which will allow you to acquire hands-on knowledge on how to address challenges of sustainable development from a psychological perspective within the broader scope of transdisciplinary research projects.
As part of this double-degree programme, you will spend your first year at one of the most renowned universities in the field of sustainability science (Leuphana University Lüneburg), and your second year at one of the most prestigious universities in the field of environmental psychology (University of Groningen).
