The Course is divided into two parts connected with a strong bond which guarantees the educational coherence of the Programme (42 ECTS) and supplies an advanced theoretical and methodological knowledge within neuropsychology, psychobiology, developmental and educational psychology, psycho-diagnostics, neurobiology, and neuropsychiatry. The two parts give additional tools useful to operate in specific contexts. One part is aimed at developing an advanced knowledge on traumatic or degenerative neuropsychological disorders, and gives the competences needed to effectively interact with physicians and paramedics involved in the neuropsychological rehabilitation. The other one helps the student to learn the new intervention areas came to light from the identification of the role of cognitive functions in psychopathology, as well as the cognitive effects of psychopharmaceuticals; it also supplies the competences needed to interact with physicians in the psychiatric area. Both parts offer an advanced theoretical and methodological knowledge mainly based on English contemporary scientific literature. Finally, each part includes 15 ECTS of guided practical activities (highly-specialised workshops) aimed at developing skills in making judgements, communicating, evaluating, and planning on specific themes of each course (3 ECTS for each one of the 5 courses constituting each part). The Programme has also an internationalisation goal that led in the A.Y. 2017-2018 to an agreement with the university San Buenaventura of Medellín, Colombia, for a joined title. The verification of the results takes place during the course by means of workshops activities (journal club, evaluation of cases, simulations), and/or a final exam (multiple-choice questions, open questions, oral exam, presentation of a written and/or oral essay with the support of PowerPoint slides, planning and presentation of a research project on themes proposed by the teacher). The achieving of the learning results at the end of the course is verified by the supervisor of the research activity required by the Programme for the final thesis and the composition, and by the co-supervisor who evaluates the composition and, with a board of at least 6 members of the Course, the PowerPoint presentation and the thesis, in a 20-minute exam.
