The research master’s Clinical and Health Psychology prepares you for a PhD trajectory. Academic and research skills are trained at an advanced level. You will make an in-depth study of topics within the broad context of ‘self-regulation of health and illness’. Topics that you will investigate include: stress, symptomperception and illness, the dynamics of behavioral change, and coping with (chronic) disease. You will learn a broad variety of methods and techniques, e.g., clinical trials, neuro maging, and longitudinal survey or intervention studies. It is possible to also qualify for the post-master training in health care psychology.
