There are currently no official programmes offering training in pediatric sub-specialties. However, pediatric sub-specialties, including pediatric neurology, have existed for over 25 years and provide specialised treatment of excellence for children with specific pathologies: of the nervous and muscular system in this case.

As this is a profession-oriented Master's degree, students learn all the theory and practice needed to work in a third-level specialist Pediatric Neurology Unit.

This programme was created in response to the growing demand, both from hospitals and from child development and early intervention centres (CDIAP), for suitably-trained specialists in Pediatric Neurology.
