Study Sexology Online

Do you have a passion for creating openness and change through conversations about sexuality? Our online Sexology Course provides you with a broad, academically grounded, and practice-oriented understanding of sexology and human sexuality.

The program combines theory and practice, drawing on multiple theoretical approaches. We believe that no single perspective can address every situation. Instead, a solid foundation in sexology gives you the knowledge and tools to adapt your professional approach to each individual.

Through real-life case studies, expert input from instructors, and in-depth academic materials developed specifically for this course, you will gain the skills to understand and navigate complex issues related to sexuality.

Sexuality is about much more than sex – it is a dynamic interplay of body, emotions, identity, and social relationships. That is why our program covers biological, psychological, and social aspects, providing you with a holistic understanding of the field and the ability to discuss sexology in a qualified and professional way.

The program is offered 100% online, giving you complete flexibility to study at your own pace. With no fixed schedules or deadlines, you can tailor your learning to fit your everyday life and personal needs.

What our students say

Experiences from the sexology program

ChatGPT sagde:

Good insight into what it means to work with sexology, time for reflection, and helpful summaries. The combination of video lessons and accompanying literature has worked really well. I appreciate being able to revisit and review the modules. Some topics required long periods of reflection and breaks for me, and I will definitely return to review/read the content in the future. I haven’t been proactive enough in seeking support and guidance along the way, but I will take that as a learning point for my future path.

Rikke, Denmark – Sexologist

I feel that I have been introduced to many different aspects, perspectives, and sides of sexology – that sexuality should be viewed as something bio-psycho-social. My horizon has truly been broadened, and I have gained so much more knowledge within the field. In addition, the videos and reading materials have been very helpful.

Alberte, Denmark – Sexologist

Fantastic course! I have really enjoyed it and, not least, learned an incredible amount. I could easily give the course 5 stars, but I “only” gave it 4 stars, as I believe there is always room for improvement. However, if I set that mindset aside, I would have given it 5 stars.
