Positioned at a study level equal to EQF Level 7 and aligned with the 2nd European cycle, the program emphasizes empirical research, critical analysis, and the application of psychological theory to forensic and justice-related settings.

Structured around five integrated modules, the program includes two research-focused modules dedicated to advanced research design, qualitative and quantitative methodologies, psychological assessment tools, data analysis, and academic writing; two general modules aimed at strengthening interdisciplinary competence, ethics in research, and policy evaluation; and one specialized module in Forensic Psychology exploring criminal behavior, offender profiling, risk assessment, psychological evaluation in legal contexts, victim support, rehabilitation strategies, and expert testimony frameworks.

Throughout the program, participants engage in structured research activities culminating in a comprehensive academic research project. The research-driven framework enables students to critically evaluate psychological evidence, assess behavioral patterns in criminal investigations, examine intervention and rehabilitation models, and contribute evidence-based insights to justice institutions, correctional systems, and mental health services.

With a minimum duration of +12 months, the program offers flexibility, allowing students to extend their studies according to the scope of their research and professional commitments.
