Master’s Degree in Neuropsychobiology

The Master's Degree in Neuropsychobiology is offered by the University of Cagliari. It includes lectures, laboratory practicals and seminar cycles, with a focus on molecular biology, applied neuroscience and neuropsychopharmacology, and ends with an original experimental thesis. The pathway is aimed at those who wish to deepen and update their skills, with a structure that links theoretical reflection to concrete applications in the relevant professional context.

The course lasts two years, full-time and in person in Cagliari. A B1 English requirement applies. The training internship is included.

The aim is to train professionals with solid theoretical and methodological foundations in neuroscience, for experimental, basic and applied neurobiological research. Career opportunities include biomedical research, doctoral studies, second-level masters, specialisations and registration with the National Register of Biologists, section A, subject to the State exam. Upon completion, those who successfully finish the pathway obtain the qualification provided and can use the skills acquired in their own professional field or in further study. Concrete prospects nevertheless depend on each participant's starting profile and experience. Those who work should carefully assess the commitment required, in terms of weekly hours and attendance, to understand whether the programme is compatible with other professional or personal commitments.
