Program description

Living under chronic stress has become second nature to modern man because of the fast-paced nature of life, competitiveness, the growing number of jobs and challenges we desire to meet, and the flurry of stimuli generated by the technology revolution. An increasing number of people are seeking professional assistance from specialists in positive psychology, which focuses on the scientific underpinnings of sensations of happiness, well-being, and relaxation, as chronic tension has a detrimental impact on both physical and mental health. The cutting-edge Chillout Studies course at the University of Economics and Human Sciences in Warsaw is the path to becoming one of them and securing a future career.

Your studies will provide you with intriguing insights into the domains of psychology, neuropsychology, and cognitive science. You will learn about cognitive processes, psychophysical reactions, and the influences of external circumstances and sensory experiences on how stress or relaxation is perceived. Social psychology is also covered in the program, with an emphasis on work-life balance, employee motivation, and stress management in the workplace. Understanding theory requires practical courses, which is why trainings, workshops, and laboratories are essential components of the studies, such as in the domains of neurofeedback (brain training), creating relaxing places, coping with stress symptoms, and interpersonal skills.
