What makes studying psychology at SFU so special?

  • The fundamental training (Bachelor’s and Master’s programmes) is practice-oriented and takes place as far as possible in the immediate vicinity of our health care units (Psychological Outpatient Clinic and Child Psychology Centre).
  • All courses with a practising character are held in small groups and our open-door policy ensures that students get individual and personal support from professors and assistants.
  • Studying psychology prepares students for a wide range of career opportunities. This wide spectrum of career prospects is matched by a broad range of research-based and research-guided teaching, especially in the Bachelor’s programme. 

Vienna as a study location

Vienna is the second oldest university location in the German-speaking world and today combines this long tradition with a modern, international character. Here you find student life and partying as well as culture and plenty of greenery and nature in the surrounding area. One of the best public transport systems in the world takes you quickly and easily to anywhere in the city. SFU is located directly between the vibrant campus of the University of Economics and Business and the recreational area in the green Prater, about 10 minutes by underground from the historic city centre.
