Through its academic courses, MA Programme in Applied Psychology provides students with both - theoretical knowledge as well practical skills. At lectures and seminars, together with theoretical materials, lecturers, who in their majority are leading specialists of the field, present and discuss practical issues and cases, most of which rely on their own practical work and/or research. Also, specially invited practitioners to share with students their experience. Particular focus is put on students’ active participation in the academic process – via presentations, discussions, debates, role-plays which, at the same time, contribute to the development of communication and team-work skills.
