The Second-Cycle (Laurea Magistrale) Degree Course in Cognitive Processes and Technologies, structured according to different paths, is aimed at the acquisition of advanced theoretical and methodological knowledge in the field of psychology applied to technologies. Through the study of psychological phenomena emerging in the new scenarios of man-machine interaction and in the contexts of psycho-social intervention, the course offers advanced training in the design and operational areas of psychology. The adopted perspective is based on an interdisciplinary approach that makes use mainly of online and multimedia teaching, which integrates the socio-cognitive, clinical and neuroscience approaches with the field of technology in order to allow a better understanding of human action.
