| Programme description | The MPhil programme in Human Development at the Department of Psychology aims at understanding the human behaviour in all its complexity, recognizing the importance of individual differences, as well as the importance of changes within the individual, between individuals, and in groups. This means that the MPhil programme integrates all aspects of the process leading to human change throughout the life span, both at the microgenetic and ontogenetic level. Therefore, the curriculum will not be restricted to psychological issues, but will also cover biological and health, human movement, social and cultural, economic, as well as physical environmental aspects. |
