In this specialisation you will gain insight into the psychological mechanisms that underlie many of our choices and decisions concerning consumption and other economic behaviour.

The one-year programme aims at providing you with comprehensive knowledge and excellent skills in economic and consumer psychology, which will enable you to work independently at a professional level in a relevant field. Questions that will be studied include: How do consumers decide what to buy? How rational are our choices? How do we sell our own products and ideas to others? As economic behaviour overlaps to a large extent with social behaviour, this master's specialisation has a lot to offer in answering these questions.
