DocumentATION
⇧MCC AND MASTERS
adapted physical activity and health
RAPA pathway: Rehabilitation through Adapted Physical Activities
The Master 2 "Rehabilitation through Adapted Physical Activities" (RAPA) program is designed to train physical activity managers specializing in supporting chronically ill or disabled populations. Graduates are destined for positions as APA managers in the health, medical-social and social sectors. Using APA as a privileged means of soliciting biopsychosocial resources, they participate in the person's life project through a global rehabilitation approach.
Prevention, Health Education, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY (PESAP) pathway
The "Prevention, Health Education, Physical Activity" (PESAP) course is designed to qualify future managers in the field of health promotion. More specifically, they are trained to use physical activity as a lever to ensure this promotion, taking into account the sense of commitment of individuals in their practices. Ultimately, the training program is designed to provide the skills needed to create conditions conducive to the health of populations in all areas of their lives, particularly in terms of lifestyles and the role of physical activity.
GEstion de la Santé par l'Activité Physique pour les Personnes Agées (GESAPPA) (Health management through physical activity for the elderly) course
Following on from the first year of Master 1, which is shared with the RAPA course, the GESAPPA Master 2 course "Health management through physical activity for the elderly" aims to train physical activity managers specializing in supporting independent or dependent populations as they age.
Movement Sciences and Technologies
The STM course is aimed at STAPS students, as well as those from a variety of scientific disciplines and engineering schools. It is also open to doctors and students with a health background who are interested in research into human movement, particularly biomechanics (surgeons of all specialties, physical medicine and rehabilitation doctors, sports medicine doctors, rheumatologists, etc.). The aim of this course is to train research professionals in the field of movement at the crossroads of science and technology.
training and optimizing sports performance
Physical preparation and reathletization course (ppr)
The aim of the PPR course is to qualify future physical preparation managers for the federal and private sectors. The diploma holder is responsible for the design, management, implementation and assessment of physical preparation intervention programs, based both on shared experience in the field and on multi-disciplinary scientific approaches in line with current technological developments.
Science and Techniques of Psychological Preparation and Coaching course (PsyCoach)
The aim of the PsyCoach program is to train sports coaching professionals capable of applying scientific knowledge and know-how to enhance performance. Graduates work as strategic and operational managers in organizations whose vocation is to coach and monitor athletes during sports psychology intervention programs in sports institutions (federations, clubs), local authorities, companies, service-providing associations, sports medicine centers and private paramedical practices.
Science, Technology and Movement (STM) course
The STM course is aimed at STAPS students, as well as those from a variety of scientific disciplines and engineering schools. It is also open to doctors and students with a health background who are interested in research into human movement, particularly biomechanics (surgeons of all specialties, physical medicine and rehabilitation doctors, sports medicine doctors, rheumatologists, etc.). The aim of this course is to train research professionals in the field of movement at the crossroads of science and technology.
sports management
Sports Tourism Management course (MTS)
The Master M.T.S. provides knowledge, know-how and skills in the interconnected fields of management, tourism and sports leisure.
The MTS pathway provides a knowledge base in Sports Science, as well as knowledge specific to Sports Tourism. It prepares students to enter the world of work in contact with professionals. An active, innovative teaching approach geared towards professionalization:
Over 50% of teaching hours are given by professionals working in the sector,
Adapted teaching methods: case studies, group work, situational presentations,
Field studies carried out as part of the training program (audit, feasibility study, etc.).
ENGINEERING AND ERGONOMICS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
Courses open at the start of the 2025 academic year.
The growing power of digital technology and artificial intelligence is generating industrial and educational needs to train senior R&D managers in the design of digital solutions for sport and health. The Master STAPS - Ingénierie et Ergonomie de l'Activité Physique - IEAP (Engineering and Ergonomics of Physical Activity) in Montpellier meets this need for a human-centered digital transition in the world of sport and health.
Digital and Movement Sciences for Health (DigiMove) pathway
It trains researchers with advanced skills to manage fundamental research or R&D projects in digital and movement sciences, with applications in the fields of health and sport.
Sport, Health, Artificial Intelligence (2SIA) pathway
It trains engineering specialists with advanced skills in the design of products and services interfacing digital and movement sciences for health and sports applications.
