Preface 

You’ve got an excellent Bachelors degree in psychology or education. You’re bright, you’re committed and you’re intrigued by the intricacies of human behaviour, both normal and dysfunctional. You may be driven by scientific curiosity and hope to do fundamental research in areas such as emotion, child development, or social  influence. Or you may want to learn more about human behaviour for practical reasons, in order to develop more accurate diagnoses and  better interventions – with regard to learning difficulties, for instance, or to mental health or addiction. And, of course, you’ll  be motivated by scientific curiosity and practical considerations.

So what should you do? One option is to deepen your knowledge and improve your research skills by joining our two-year research-based Masters Programme in Behavioural Science. The Behavioural Science Institute (BSI) at Radboud University Nijmegen offers an outstanding programme. If you’re fascinated by research, this would be an ideal  preparation for a PhD in psychology or education. Alternatively, it would be an excellent bridge between academic research and the world of practice. This programme is ideal for those who wish to bring about change, be it in science or in practice.
