TECH offers this professional master’s degree as a scientifically rigorous program with which you will be able to expand your knowledge on the principles of cerebral biochemistry through a 100% online format”

Given the increase in brain disorders in recent years, Clinical Neuropsychology has developed enormously, providing in-depth knowledge of the development of mental disorders. For this purpose, the exhaustive study of the relationships between the brain and the behavior of the clinical cases has been fundamental. In order to respond to the professional demand of healthcare centers and to update the knowledge of nurses in this area, TECH and its team of experts in Nursing and Neurology have developed this professional master’s degree in Clinical Neuropsychology.

It is a multidisciplinary and intensive program that will provide graduates with all the information they need to master the latest developments in this discipline. By taking the professional master’s degree, nurses will delve into the basics of Neurology, as well as the principles of Neuroanatomy, with special emphasis on cognitive functions and the different types of neurobiological principles that are known today. It will also delve into brain damage and aphasia, agraphia and alexia, as well as cognitive deficits and neurodegenerative diseases. Finally, it will focus on the main techniques of neuropsychological evaluation and rehabilitation, and will conclude with an exhaustive review of the most effective pharmacological treatments, their recommendations and the cases in which they should be avoided.

All of this, through a 100% online program which includes 1500 hours of theoretical, practical and additional material chosen and designed by the teaching team. Furthermore, the digital characteristics of the content make the program a dynamic and simple experience. It is based on downloadable content so that students only need to have a device and an Internet connection. In this way, they will be able to access the materials offline, even after the end of the program.

Expand your healthcare knowledge by addressing the origins of neuroanatomy and learning more about the early authors to determine future perspectives"

A program designed in relation to the latest scientific advances in neuropsychology and that covers cognitive functions and the latest developments related to the different neurobiological bases”

The program’s teaching staff includes professionals from the sector who contribute their work experience to this educational program, as well as renowned specialists from leading societies and prestigious universities.

The multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive education programmed to learn in real situations.

The design of this program focuses on Problem-Based Learning, by means of which professionals must try to solve the different professional practice situations that are presented to them throughout the academic year. For this purpose, the student will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts.

You'll take an in-depth review of functional neuroanatomy, from neuron composition to brain asymmetry"

With this professional master’s degree, you will update your knowledge in different types of practice such as ideomotor, ideational, visuoconstructive, facial and clothing"

Clinical Neuropsychology is a constantly evolving science that requires professional skills to master the latest technologies in its prevention and treatment. The main objective of this program is for nurses to gain a cutting-edge view of the nervous system and behavior of mental disorders. For this purpose, TECH will provide innovative tools through audiovisual materials in different formats. In this way, the program will constitute a highly beneficial academic experience to develop as a specialized professional in this branch of nursing.

TECH aims to broaden your foundation in functional neuroanatomy so that you can learn the latest techniques for brain intervention"
