Work Areas
The work areas in which the graduate will be able to find a place will be: public or private institutions aimed at the protection of psychological well-being in its many forms; companies and public and private institutions, cooperatives operating in the private sector for research, consultancy, training and organizational development activities; entities and institutions for continuing education; organizations that deal with the management of migration flows, inclusiveness and human rights (even in emergency contexts).
The training of the three-year graduate will be aimed at acquiring solid psychological knowledge of a theoretical-methodological type. Graduates will be able to operate competently in international contexts. The training acquired will allow students who decide not to continue their studies, both to know how to plan an intervention at the level of institutions and to effectively work alongside postgraduate / specialist graduates. For students who will continue their studies, the skills already acquired will constitute a broad and solid foundation on which to build specific skills. The cultural and professional profile of the graduate will therefore be characterized by international skills that will allow both immediate usability and the continuation of studies in numerous countries.
