In the common first year, all students participate in theoretical and empirical course offerings taught in English. Thereafter, two separate segments are offered preparing for a M.Sc. or Ph.D. degree, respectively. The M.Sc. degree is achieved by the writing of a Master's thesis (to be completed within a six months period), the Ph.D. degree by writing and defending a Ph.D. dissertation (within a three-year period).

Requirements for the immediate entry into the Ph.D. segment are a diploma, Master or Magister degree after at least 4.5 years of study (or 270 cp) in a relevant field with grade A or B or a Bachelor's degree after a minimum of 3.5 years (with a minimum of 210 cp) in an experimental neurocognitive area with an outstanding grade (A) and excellent references.
