In addition to the disciplines traditionally taught in a Master degree course about the management and policy of the welfare state - such as research methods for welfare policy, values and professional cultures, administrative law, criminal justice and quantitative analysis - this Master degree course allows you to explore more in depth subjects like participatory evaluation of welfare intervention, elaboration, development and assessment of welfare policy and management and valorisation of human resources.

If you are a working student, the timetable for the Master course can be arranged around your working schedule in order to enable you to attend as many classes as possible. You can also attend the course online.
