General Health Psychology + Social Intervention Psychology

We bring you closer to the professional reality

Internships

Internships (30 ECTS) give students the chance for training as they carry out tasks and duties, thus developing professional competences (skills, attitudes and aptitudes).

The number of hours of clinical practice will be around 500. The hours are counted weekly, taking into account exclusively direct clinical practice, i.e. intervention, observation and supervision with a therapist.

Increased employment generation

Professional development

Psychological work in social processes has become increasingly important to the extent that the Spanish Psychological Association has recognised it as one of the professional profiles with the greatest development in recent years and with the greatest future prospects.

It is important to note the increasing number of jobs being created in this field in Spain, both in the public sector and in other emerging fields of non-profitsocial action.

Specialist psychologists with scientific and professional training are required to work with different groups which have very specific psychological needs. Public Administration, associations, NGOs and private firms are making efforts to fulfil these needs.

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES
