Bachelor in Licence - Psychologie

Psychology — Licence Psychologie — is a three-year bachelor-level programme offered in French at the Université de Tours (37) in Tours, France. The programme begins in September and carries a yearly tuition of 178 EUR. Psychology covers the scientific study of human behaviour, mental processes, and emotional functioning across the lifespan. Students are introduced to the major theoretical frameworks of the discipline, including cognitive, developmental, social, clinical, and neuropsychological approaches. Core courses typically address research methodology and statistics, which form an essential part of training in a scientific discipline. Students learn to design and evaluate empirical studies, analyse quantitative and qualitative data, and interpret findings within established theoretical contexts. Modules frequently address topics such as perception, memory, learning, motivation, personality, and interpersonal relations. Practical work placements or observation periods are common at the bachelor level to introduce students to applied settings. Instruction is entirely in French. In France, access to the title of psychologist requires completion of a master's degree following the Licence, so most students continue beyond the three-year programme. Career paths include clinical and health psychology, educational psychology, occupational and organisational psychology, and research. The Licence provides the foundational scientific and theoretical training required for any of these directions.
