Students on this course will be able to:

* Analyze, describe, explain and foresee risk factors in Public Health (physical and psychological health), in order to minimize their occurrence (prevention) or extent through establishing a methodology, drafting a protocol, collecting data and statistical exploitation of results.
* Establish responses to be brought to the field of prevention (primary, secondary and tertiary) and education, to individual and group physical and psychological health (individual and group action). The systems designed and implemented cover both the public and private sectors (ergonomics at work, public space planning, etc.).

Contents

The M1 papers constitute a refresher course in the necessary disciplines so that students can understand the different fields of the major and its four M2 specializations. A large choice of papers allows students to tailor their course according to the M2 specialization they envisage.

The M1 can be organized around two programs:

Medical Engineering (IM) and Re-education, Re-adaptation, Rehabilitation (3R).
With the M2 specializations, students gain and develop more advanced notions in the most up-to-date disciplinary fields: clinical research in re-education (RCE); professional training in re-education (DPR); prevention/education in re-education (PER); medical engineering (IM). This degree also prepares students for doctoral research in the corresponding fields.

Requirements

The major is directed primarily towards:

* graduates of a state diploma or a those certified in the re-education professions who are enrolled in the Code de la Santé publique (Parties IV), or students with foreign diplomas who have been admitted by the UPMC´s equivalence commission.
* graduates of a Bachelor of Science and Technology, majoring in Life Sciences, or equivalent (R3 program)
* candidates from the Bachelor of Science and Technology who followed the physics or electronics programs, or with knowledge judged equivalent by the admissions panel (IM program)
* candidates from the medicine and pharmacy streams who have completed three years of study (IM program)
* candidates with the equivalent of an M1 level and with professional experience judged sufficient by the specialization´s admissions panel (comprising the head of the Master´s course and permanent teaching staff from the specialization).

Please note:The RIM course is designed for full time students. Due to the number of hours of presence required and to the significant workload, this course should not be envisaged by those working more than half-time in addition to their studies.

The 3R program of the M1 is recommended for students who wish to follow on with one of the following M2 specializations: clinical research in re-education (RCE); professional training in re-education (DPR); prevention/education in re-education (PER).

The IM program is recommended for students who wish to choose the medical engineering (IM) specialization in M2.

International students welcome

This degree is accessible to French and foreign students from other scientific streams. The educational methods used provide for the integration of students from various backgrounds. Non-French-speaking students will be given personalized support and French language classes will be organized within the university´s languages department.
