Overview

As a graduate, you will be able to apply your skills to a broad diversity of areas of psychological research and practice that require a deep understanding of human relations and human behaviour. The outcome of the dissertation is expected to be a strong and locally relevant empirical inquiry that could contribute towards understanding, and potentially redressing, elements of human activity in Maltese society.

Career opportunities

This MSc in Psychological Studies at the University of Malta will help graduates in psychology boost their career opportunities by providing them with a comprehensive and exhaustive training in research methods in psychology that serves in implementing the scientist-practitioner model and in developing an evidence-base for the practice of psychology.
In particular, the taught component of the course (delivered during the first year of studies) provides an invaluable resource to anyone seeking to undertake further study in psychology, such as a professional masters’ degree or a doctoral degree.
