Interventions in Childhood: Master of Science with a major in Child Studies

jonkoping120The Master's programme Interventions in Childhood is an interdisciplinary education focusing on effective intervention techniques for children in need of support — beyond what is normally provided to all children.

The programme is grounded in an ecological perspective on child development, learning, and functioning. Influences are observed at various levels, from biological to environmental, or from 'neurons to neighbourhoods'. A critical perspective focusing on the individual, the environment, and their interrelationship, is emphasised.

The programme addresses everyday life situations of children in various settings, including family, preschool/school, hospital, and community. A biopsycho-ecological model is used as a frame of reference and the connection between research and practical everyday work is stressed.

Degree: 1 year, 60 credits. Master of Science with a major in Child Studies.
