This combination of profiles contributes to methodological diversity and direct contact with established lines of research.
The curriculum and academic guide can be found on the official website of the master's program , where modules, competencies, evaluation and sequencing of subjects are detailed.
Official recognition and professional development
The MIMAD is an official Master's degree program accredited and verified by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities, guaranteeing its academic and administrative validity. Its entry in the RUCT (National Registry of Universities, Centers and Technological Universities) can be found here: ministerial registry.
This accreditation allows the degree to be considered in competitive examinations for public administration positions and in selection processes for roles related to Special Education and Special Educational Needs. For those planning an academic career, the master's degree qualifies them for doctoral studies at any Spanish university.
Practices and relationship with the environment
Practical training takes place in 15 institutions in the Autonomous City of Ceuta, facilitating the application of knowledge in real-world contexts and immersion in professional teams.

Admission profile and requirements
The master's program is geared towards graduates in Education, Psychology, Social Education, and Educational Psychology , as well as those with related backgrounds.
