  • This Master's degree directly addresses the scientific basis of language in comparison with the current epistemological criterion of science, especially in the humanities.

    The Master's Degree in Language Development and Communication Difficulties at Nebrija University is an academic and research specialisation in relation to research into assessment, analysis, detection and its application to intervention in language development and its possible alterations.

    The proposal revolves around three axes: the analysis of language skills, oral and written, the process of development and learning of speech, language and communication and finally the examination of the latest scientific contributions, primarily from the area of neuroscience, in relation to their influence in stimulating the development of language and intervention in communication disorders.

    This degree arises from the need to harmonise the contributions made from different fields of work (speech therapy, psychology, pedagogy, medicine, education, etc.), with the ultimate aim of offering an appropriate multidimensional response, which brings together the most relevant contributions observed in the area and allows us to offer a coordinated response, based on scientific knowledge, to the diversity found in the population that presents difficulties in the acquisition and correct development of speech, language and communication.
