The Bachelor’s degree program in Psychology offered at Campus Ludes offers a broad and well-rounded basic training in the field of psychological studies. Through an interdisciplinary approach, students acquire an in-depth understanding of psychological theories and research methodologies, complemented by the practical skills necessary to work in contexts characterized by the presence of various forms of psychological distress. In fact, the program offered in Campus Ludes aims both to provide the basic preparation for those who intend to continue their studies in the field of psychology (arriving at the acquisition of the necessary requirements, after the completion of the bachelor’s degree, to access the application for licensing to practice as a psychologist), and to enable students to position themselves right away in specific work areas in which skills of a psychological nature are in high demand. In particular, the program offered in Campus Ludes lays the groundwork for such an innovative specific professional bent toward the following areas:
- the psychology of sport
- the psychology of creativity
- The psychology of the healing relationship (in-person and remote)
The background on which the program is based is that of a view of human nature based on a model of holistic medicine, that is, on an overall conception of the human being that considers the mind as a specific function of corporeality and corporeality as the root of emotions, feelings and thoughts, thus pandering to the latest orientations in cognitive science based on the so-called “four E’s,” that is, the conception of a mind at once “embodied,” “embedded,” “enacted” and “extended.”
The Bachelor’s faculty is characterized by distinguished professors and leading professionals and experts in the fields of psychology and psychotherapy; their extensive experience and expertise enables students to acquire a solid theoretical foundation and develop the practical skills needed to meet the challenges of their relevant professional fields. Interactions with the well-established Bachelor’s in Physiotherapy-now in its 25th year-further enhance the professional perspectives cultivated on campus.
In the style intended by the founder of Campus Ludes, faculty guide students on their learning journey, helping them cultivate the ability to understand and respect the experiences and viewpoints of others, as well as actively promoting critical thinking, analysis and reasoning. Students are encouraged to rigorously and competently evaluate theories and evidence in the field of psychological science, developing an analytical approach and also preparing for research and experimentation. In addition, with small classes and a focus on the individual it is possible to ensure a fully inclusive and supportive learning environment, fostering each student’s personalized personal and professional growth.
The welcoming and inclusive campus environment fosters open-mindedness and promotes empathy, encouraging communication skills and interaction with diverse cultural perspectives. Empathy becomes a fundamental and transformative pillar in students’ education.

Why study psychology at Campus Ludes
In general, studying psychology offers a unique opportunity to better understand oneself and others in a rapidly changing world. The Bachelor’s in Psychology is designed to provide a modern and dynamic education with a mix of theory and practice that prepares for the future and focuses on some innovative professional fields in which the psychology graduate is increasingly in demand. The pandemic, the aging population, and the increased focus on personal well-being have heightened the demand for qualified professionals in the field of psychology.
The Bachelor’s degree program in Psychology offered at our campus is characterized by specific professionalizing curvatures activated since the basic Bachelor’s course.
Specifically:
The professionalizing pathway in Sport Psychology orients courses in the psycho-social and cognitive-motivational area on the one hand to the acquisition of techniques that allow maximizing the probability that athletes can achieve their competitive goals, and on the other hand to the establishment of a relationship between sports practice and improvement of the quality of life, with specific attention also to the process of orientation towards the so-called “dual-career.” that is, the future job placement of the athlete even in areas other than the sports domain in the strict sense.
The professionalizing pathway in the Psychology of Creativity orients courses in the pedagogical and clinical areas to the exploitation of the psychological repercussions of creative practices, cultivated at various levels, from play to the art workshop, including through craft practice. The worlds on which such creative activities can have the greatest impact are those of schools, psychiatric hospitals and situations where the greatest social distress is experienced, such as prisons.
Il percorso professionalizzante in Psicologia della relazione curativa orienta i corsi dell’area clinica e psico-sociale alla gestione delle situazioni di sofferenza e malattia in cui il malato deve imparare a convivere con il disagio (ma anche reagire onde poter rafforzare le capacità di guarigione insite nel suo sistema immunitario naturale) e il parente deve invece prendere atto della nuova situazione e divenire capace di trovare un senso nella esperienza della sofferenza e della perdita.
All three paths are also substantiated by important phases of professional practice, to be experienced directly in the environments in which the psychology graduate will find himself or herself working from time to time, from professional sports club to psychiatric hospital, from school to prison.
Finally, the student will also begin from the very beginning to be involved with the various Research Centers operating at Campus Ludes, thus beginning to touch upon the dynamics of experimental and applied research. The Centers operating in the field of psychology are:
- the Research Center in Aerospace Psychology, involved in a project to assist and monitor the training of astronaut trainees, led by students from the Lausanne Polytechnic Institute;
- the Art, Health and Society Research Center engaged in monitoring the beneficial effects of creative arts workshops in the Maputo Psychiatric Hospital (Mozambique) and in experimental research on the impact of emotions aroused by music;
- the Center for Research on the Distant Curative Relationship, engaged in defining strategies for enhancing the curative relationship through telematic and multimedia tools.
After receiving a Bachelor’s degree, the student can continue his or her studies by accessing university Master’s programs or approach the world of work directly.
PROFESSIONAL FIELDS FOR THE IMMEDIATE APPROACH TO THE WORLD OF WORK:
- Coaching e Psychologist Counseling
- Psychological counselor for professional sports clubs
- Art therapy
- Cultural and voluntary associations
- NGOs and international cooperation

- Hospitals, health and rehabilitation facilities
