This context, in which social groups and organisations currently operate, has very relevant implications in terms of the diversity and complexity of behaviours, social contexts and relationships between individuals, groups and organisations. The Masters aims to provide specialised training for research into behavioural phenomena in a more general social and organisational context, as well as for the application of psychology to work in companies and other types of institutions, such as public institutions or NGOs. The course also prepares for professional activity in multicultural environments that characterise the reality of a large part of today's social and work environments. Further Studies Specialisation and post-graduate programmes, including 3rd cycle programmes referring to doctoral studies.

Subsequently, it is necessary to complete a professional internship supervised by the OPP.
