Curriculum designed with the most up-to-date tools in neuropsychological evaluation
In the era of Neurosciences, Neuropsychology was born to join the goal shared with other scientific disciplines of understanding the human brain, focusing its efforts on the behavioural manifestations and higher processes associated with its normal and altered functioning. These alterations may be due to brain damage, the appearance of a neurodegenerative disease or neurodevelopmental alterations. The work of the neuropsychologist, the specialist in assessment, reporting and rehabilitation of impaired cognitive functions, is essential.
The general objective of this Master's Degree is to provide students with comprehensive training in Neuropsychology, developing a professional profile capable of assessing the cognitive deficits associated with different neuropsychological disorders and offering intervention and neurorehabilitation tools for any neuropsychological alteration in clinical practice.
Thanks to this master's degree you will learn to:
- Identify normal and altered behaviour due to acquired brain damage, neurodegenerative disease or neurodevelopmental disorders.
- Carry out a neuropsychological assessment and prepare a report.
- Select and design effective neuropsychological intervention proposals.
