Master in Psychological Intervention and Behavioral Change

The Master in Psychological Intervention and Behavioral Change offers a comprehensive and applied approach to understanding how people think, feel, and act, and how these processes can be effectively influenced through evidence-based psychological interventions.

The program integrates behavioral science, emotional regulation, and applied psychology to train professionals capable of promoting meaningful and sustainable change in individuals, organizations, and communities.

Throughout the program, students acquire solid theoretical and methodological foundations in behavioral and cognitive models, psychological assessment, and emotional regulation. The first semester develops core competencies for understanding human behavior and designing intervention frameworks, while the second semester emphasizes applied practice, professional skills, and the integration of mindfulness and social-context interventions.

The masters's culminates in an Applied Project, where each student designs, implements, or evaluates a real psychological or behavioral program under academic supervision. Graduates emerge with the professional skills and ethical competence required to work in diverse fields such as health, education, organizational development, social intervention, and behavioral consultancy.
