The Master of Science (MSc) in Developmental Disorders, which aligns with the parallel program at the UK campus, provides advanced theoretical knowledge of the psychological aspects of neurodevelopmental, clinical, and behavioral conditions that emerge during childhood and impact various areas of a child's life. Examples of developmental disorders include Autism, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Tic Disorders, and Learning Disorders (such as dyslexia and dysgraphia).

Upon completing this MSc, you will develop expertise in cutting-edge research methods tailored for investigating the psychological dimensions of neurodevelopmental, clinical, and behavioral conditions, alongside practical knowledge in diagnosis and assessment, management strategies, and support plans for children with developmental disorders. This program effectively integrates scientific research with clinical psychological practice.
