Rehabilitation through Adapted Physical Activities (RAPA)
The Master's degree in Rehabilitation through Adapted Physical Activities (RAPA) is designed to train future
managers in Adapted Physical Activity (APA) engineering in specialized professional sectors,
medical, medico-social, or socio-educational fields, and in personal service structures and
health networks that work with people with disabilities,
chronic illness in people with disabilities or at risk in terms of health, and
the elderly.
