Nuno Tavares
Master’s Degree in Exercise and Well-Being
My name is Nuno Tavares, I work at Vila Franca de Xira City Council, and I am a senior technician at the council.
The master's degree I completed was in Exercise and Well-Being, which is taught by a highly experienced faculty, allowing me to acquire a set of important tools and knowledge for intervention based on scientific understanding.
Essentially, it is an approach based on the benefits of physical activity and exercise for people’s health and well-being.
My relationship with Lusófona University was truly shaped by the quality of its faculty, whose extensive experience enabled me to gain the knowledge I mentioned earlier. That was the main reason I chose this master's programme: the faculty.
The added value, as I mentioned, lies in the acquisition of tools and skills that help us intervene in our day-to-day practice, particularly in the fields of physical activity and exercise.
In my case, the career opportunities include projects developed within the community, in partnership with hospitals, health centres, as well as within gyms. The gym setting itself allows for interventions with clinical populations.
Lusófona University stands out for its excellence, competence, specialisation, and the opportunity it provides to acquire essential tools and knowledge for our profession.
