Master in Neurocontrol Motor

Tuition fees are 3,156 USD per year.

Motor neurocontrol is a specialised field examining the neural mechanisms that govern movement planning, execution, and adaptation. Graduate study in this area draws on neurophysiology, motor neuroscience, biomechanics, and rehabilitation science to analyse how the central and peripheral nervous systems coordinate muscular activity. Topics typically include spinal cord circuitry, cortical motor control, sensorimotor integration, movement disorders, and the application of these insights to physical rehabilitation and sports performance. Graduates work in academic and hospital research units, neurorehabilitation centres, sports science institutes, and applied neuroscience laboratories. The field has practical relevance for the treatment of conditions such as stroke, Parkinson's disease, spinal cord injury, and cerebral palsy, as well as for optimising performance in elite sport. This one-year master has a yearly tuition of 2,701.20 EUR and is taught at Rey Juan Carlos University at its Alcorcón campus in Spain.
