Program Overview

The Mastère (MSc) and Ph.D. program in Neurosciences at UNICHRISTIAN is strategically designed for psychologists, doctors, biologists, educators, and health professionals seeking to achieve the pinnacle of academic and professional recognition in the global arena. Understanding the mysteries of the brain and the biological basis of human behavior has become an indispensable differentiator for high-level performance in the contemporary market.

Structural Differences: Mastère (MSc) vs. Ph.D.

The program of international vocation structured with reference to France is organized in an architecture of progressive complexity in two cycles.

Cycle I — Mastère (MSc)•Focus on technical instrumentation and practical application of knowledge•Duration of 18 to 36 months (1,500 hours)•Professional preparation for teaching and evidence-based management
Cycle II — Ph.D.•Directed toward high investigation and deep epistemology•Duration of 24 to 48 months (2,500 hours)•Writing and public defense of an original thesis of high impact
