SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The Master's in Social Psychology is for those who want to deeply understand the contradictions and patterns within different communities, for those who want to understand, predict, and explain not only fast social reactions but also long-term, often invisible changes within entire societies. 

    Students in this program study the classical and contemporary theories and concepts behind social interactions, and constantly use modern data collection and analysis tools to work with these theories in practice;
    This program differs from other similar programs in Ukraine, as it is based on the Western approach to master's programs - training a professional through research;
    The main focus of the program is to ensure that students have the opportunity to study science and gain applied knowledge that will help them to be effective practitioners and solve complex social and psychological problems that arise in our society today: implementing reforms and working with communities, facilitating communication and support of complex social processes and global initiatives, returning those who have gone abroad, working in the de-occupied territories, resolving external and internal social conflicts, etc.

The program is taught primarily in Ukrainian. However, most of the literature is in English, as the program involves the study of the latest academic trends. Classes from foreign teachers are also taught in English.

The recommended level of English is B1. At the beginning of their studies, students learn English to bring their grades up to the level required for the program.

FORMAT OF STUDY

The program provides a blended learning format and combines classes on the KSE campus and distance learning. The actual form depends on the discipline, its teacher, and the group’s composition. Classes are held in the evening every week from 18:00 to 21:00, 5 days a week.

Our building has comfortable classrooms in shelters and generators, so regardless of the circumstances, students can continue to study without interruption.
