Presentation
This training program did not previously exist within the Montpellier Nîmes Faculty of Medicine at the University of Montpellier. The REHAB program responds to new training needs related to changes in the healthcare system:
- Changes in healthcare professions:
- Expansion of the fields of research for medical and surgical professions
- University education for paramedical professions, particularly rehabilitation professions
- Creation of new professions in the field of rehabilitation: teachers in adapted physical activities, digital health engineers (virtual reality, home automation, robotics, connected objects, big data, brain-computer interfaces, functional electrical stimulation, neuromodulation, embedded sensors, etc.), telemedicine operators, care pathway advisors, rehabilitation technical platform technicians, etc.Training for these new professions will enable the creation of new training programs at the end of LAS (vocational training programs).
The REHAB track of the Master's in Health aims to train researchers in the field of rehabilitation and re-education. It is a health research program specifically focused on the functioning of human beings in normal or pathological situations with a view to reducing sensory-motor impairments, recovering or compensating for activity limitations, and reducing disabilities.
This two-year program is open to students in health sciences, scientific disciplines, and physical education and sports science and technology.
The originality of this program lies in the richness of its teaching, based on an interdisciplinary approach to health that provides scientific knowledge in the field of rehabilitation and re-education, as well as theoretical and practical methodological knowledge enabling the implementation of excellent research strategies aimed at improving the health of the population, reducing neuro-locomotor disabilities, and better understanding the complex challenges of the evolution of both societal and technological health systems.
The REHAB program of the Master's in Health Sciences at the Montpellier/Nîmes Faculty of Medicine consists of a common M1 program offered by the Faculty of Medicine and two Master's 2 sub-programs: MAP and HAT.

Master's 1
Master 2 - Movement, Adaptation, Plasticity - MAP
This MAP (Movement Learning Plasticity) course is designed to provide essential knowledge of movement physiology, learning theory, and system plasticity, enabling students to conceive and structure applied research on living organisms based on solid methodology and using appropriate measurement methods.
Master 2 - Disability, Independence, Technologies - HAT
This HAT (Handicap Autonomie Technologies) course is designed to provide essential knowledge of movement physiology and learning theories to enable students to understand and classify how people with disabilities function, with a view to creating, evaluating, and validating technologies aimed at improving individual participation on a solid methodological basis.
