Masters in Developmental Psychology

The master aims to train psychologists working with children, from birth to adolescence, in the general population and/or in situations of adversity, from an epigenetic and ecological perspective: it is a question of taking an interest in the trajectories development of children, namely the interaction between their individual specificities and the living environments in which they evolve. Emphasis is placed on institutional contexts such as family, school and justice. Developmental psychologists use the clinical method based on observation, interview and psychological assessment which takes particular account of the specificities of development from an epigenetic perspective.
