Tipps und Entscheidungshilfen für die Ausbildungswahl
To be able to work as a psychologist, you need a university degree with psychology as your main subject (possibly with a corresponding specialization) and further training in the area of specialization in accordance with the guidelines of the Federation of Swiss Psychologists FSP and the Swiss Professional Association for Applied Psychology SBAP. The titles Specialist Psychologist FSP and Specialist Psychologist SBAP are legally protected. Those who choose the University of Applied Sciences and the Master of Applied Psychology opt for the more practice-oriented option.
The Master's degree in Applied Psychology is therefore a prerequisite for:
- independent work in the area of specialization
- Psychotherapy training
- protection of the title of psychologist in accordance with the Psychology Professions Act from 2013
Specializations are possible in the following areas, for example.
