Organisation profile

The mission of the Faculty of Psychology, Education and Sports is to provide an accredited, rigorous and innovative educational offer, which responds to the needs of undergraduate, postgraduate and specialized training in the fields of psychology, education and sport.

The training options available at the faculty combine the excellence of technical and scientific content, preparation for professional challenges in a European society in constant transformation, commitment to ethical values and the stimulation of critical thinking, curiosity, entrepreneurship and active citizenship. We provide opportunities for students to actively participate in research, gain pre-professional experience, be involved in volunteer programs and study at other European universities under community programmes.

The faculty is made up of a highly qualified faculty, dynamic and committed to the academic success of students. Our teaching staff combines experience and innovation, demand and creativity, the production of scientific knowledge and its application to professional contexts. Our professors lead funded research projects, integrate national and international professional and scientific associations, seeing their work recognized by the scientific community and our partners.

Every day we work to achieve the excellence of our training, the innovation of our scientific research, the qualitative difference of our outreach services to the community. We want our college to be an exciting and vibrant space that pushes the boundaries of how we think and see the world.

We are dedicated to welcoming, supporting and engaging our students, respecting and valuing their life experiences. In this joint journey, we encourage all faculty members to learn from the expression of different values and perspectives, in an environment of cooperation, effort and freedom of thought.
