What is behavioral science?
Behavioral science examines the rules and developmental potential of human behavior in an interdisciplinary system approach, that is, in the framework of the interactions between people and their environment.
In medical education behavioral disciplines are taught in order to offer students a deeper understanding of patients and patient populations, to make them familiar with individualized intervention-planning that observes personal, social and cultural factors, and finally, to help the forming behavior of the future physician to unfold.
Our institute offers education at three faculties of the university, at gradual, postgradual and extracurricular levels. We offer subjects for a period of 8 semesters.
Our research activities include the examination of the health-related behavior of the youth, the ethical questions raised by medical education, and also the enhancement of the quality of medical education.
