Sexology is perhaps best categorised as an interdisciplinary enterprise and we’ll take a bio-psycho-social perspective. The main focus, yet, will be a psychological one. That said, students who want to work from other and various perspectives are very welcome to join. 

Experts in the field will join the lectures, answer your questions, participate in the discussion and stimulate you to share your opinions through assignments, both live and by using a digital discussion platform. This course aims to provide you with an introduction to sexology research that is safe, up-to-date, and inspiring.
