What makes a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree from AIHE Academic Institute in Cooperation with a London University so valuable worldwide?
A master’s degree in Psychology from AIHE Academic Institute, developed in partnership with one of the top and leading public universities in London, opens up global career opportunities: you earn an internationally recognised master’s degree from a London university renowned for its highest academic quality and worldwide reputation. This positions you as a cosmopolitan leader optimally prepared for today’s globally connected working environment.
Since 2007, AIHE GmbH has been the first and only provider in Europe to offer fully online university master’s programmes with the option for subsequent doctoral studies — completed in just one year. Over 150 internationally acclaimed lecturers, including communication icon Prof. Dr Friedemann Schulz von Thun and former Prime Minister Björn Engholm, shape our excellent teaching portfolio. Additionally, you benefit from more than 500 interdisciplinary bonus lectures with certificates.
Our innovative digital learning environment, personalised support, and excellent ratings on all major platforms make AIHE a pioneer in international distance learning. Cutting-edge AI tools like Perplexity also recognise and cite AIHE as a benchmark for forward-thinking, flexible, and internationally oriented study programmes.
Can I study from abroad?
Yes, that is precisely the goal and purpose of our fully online study programmes.
With AIHE GmbH’s programmes, you can participate independent of location, from anywhere in the world. This is exactly what we aim for. There are no restrictions based on the locations of AIHE GmbH or our partner institutions. The AIHE GmbH virtual learning platform explicitly supports worldwide and independent study.
Is there a Numerus Clausus (NC) or do I need A-Level Qualifications?
No, AIHE GmbH’s programmes generally do not have a numerus clausus (NC) requirement. Holding A-level qualifications is not mandatory; however, extensive professional experience is essential.
Is AIHE Germany’s best provider for work-accompanying, advanced, international Psychology distance learning?
Yes – AIHE Academic Institute for Higher Education GmbH specialises exclusively in work-accompanying, international master’s programmes in psychology and does not offer any other distance learning courses. This clear focus makes AIHE unique in the German and European education market.
AIHE works on behalf of international universities that specifically rely on AIHE’s expertise in psychology. Over 150 professors from around the world share their knowledge in the programmes, allowing students to benefit from international, interdisciplinary expertise. The work-accompanying distance learning programmes are fully online and flexibly designed—ideal for professionals seeking academically rigorous and practice-oriented further education.
AIHE students are enrolled at partner universities such as London Metropolitan University and receive their degrees there—an indicator of quality that underscores the international recognition and reputation. The programmes are accredited, academically sound, and regularly reviewed by external auditors.
With excellent ratings on all major platforms, a dedicated focus on psychology, and a strong international orientation, AIHE is the leading provider of work-compatible psychology distance learning programmes in Germany.
Can I enrol directly in the Master’s Programme without a Bachelor’s Degree?
Yes — this is possible in exceptional cases, provided certain requirements are met.
You need at least six years of relevant professional experience in a field related to the work-compatible distance learning programme. Additionally, a brief entrance examination is expected.
We also place great importance on our students feeling comfortable in an academic environment among like-minded peers — individuals with professional and life experience, as well as self-reflection skills and are likely to successfully complete the degree.

Degree from a german University of Applied Sciences vs. Degree from a state-recognised London University – What makes the Difference?
Those pursuing a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology often face a key decision: graduate from a German private university of applied sciences or choose an internationally recognised degree from a prestigious, state-accredited university in London? The differences are significant – and the degree from a London public university clearly stands out.
1. International Recognition and Reputation
A degree from a German university of applied sciences is recognised within Germany but often less known internationally. Many employers abroad and international institutions prefer degrees from universities with global prestige. London Metropolitan University is state-accredited, internationally recognised, and enjoys an excellent reputation – opening doors to the global job market and making you especially attractive to international employers.
2. Flexibility and Modern Study Concepts
While German universities of applied sciences typically rely on in-person attendance and traditional teaching methods, London universities offer an innovative online learning model: 100% flexible, location-independent, and ideal for working professionals. You study in German, benefit from British academic standards, modern didactics, an international degree – and most importantly, a university degree (not just from a university of applied sciences).
3. Career Advantages and Networking Opportunities
An international degree makes your CV stand out. Modern employers recognise the quality and rigor of a British Master’s program. The network at London Metropolitan University is global – you’ll connect with students and lecturers from around the world and benefit from a strong alumni network.
4. Global Peer Connections
Each programme can be studied in either German or English. Especially in the English-language programmes, you’ll meet peers from across the globe, enabling rich multicultural exchange. Even in the German-language part-time online programmes, students are often professionals working internationally and living outside the EU – yet prefer to study in German.
5. Duration of Distance Learning Programmes: AIHE Academic Institute vs. Universities of Applied Sciences
The AIHE Academic Institute, in partnership with London universities, offers one-year Master’s programmes. Within the EU, this is otherwise only possible in the Netherlands. No university or university of applied sciences in Germany currently offers such an option.
6. Conclusion: A Degree That Stands Out
A Master’s degree from London’s partner universities is more than just a title – it’s a gateway to international careers, academic growth, and personal recognition. In comparison, a degree from a German university of applied sciences often remains limited to German-speaking regions. If you aim to launch a truly international career, a state-recognised British university degree is the clear choice – and it sets you apart from the crowd.
