Introduction to the Program
This program provides you with the most recent knowledge in pediatrics in the emergency care of children and adolescents with trauma or poisoning. This way you will perform a much safer and effective professional practice"
Recent advances and scientific research in the field of pediatric care have led to a decrease in the prevalence of serious and even fatal diseases in the pediatric population. This has led primary pediatric care to focus its efforts on new focuses more closely related to pathologies such as allergies, neurodevelopmental and learning disorders or infectious diseases whose diagnosis is sometimes difficult to pinpoint. For this reason, it is vital for the professional in this field to keep abreast of the latest advances in the sector, as this is the only way to offer complete care adapted to the patient.
This Master's Degree provides the medical professional with an in-depth study of the latest scientific studies that address the care of the newborn, as well as the different pathologies that may arise from birth through childhood and adolescence. Through an enriched multimedia content, the pediatrician will be able to delve into the therapeutic plans for dermatological problems, the main disorders related to feeding, gastrointestinal disorders or bronchiolitis.
The teaching team that integrates this program will also provide clinical case studies that will be very useful to students, since they will bring them closer to real situations that they could encounter in their usual clinical practice.

Master’s Degree in Pediatric Primary Care
Safeguarding childhood has been one of the core goals of medicine since the time when Hebrew midwives (predecessors of obstetricians) helped ensure the survival of newborns, as documented in the Torah. Even back then, these educated women held a prominent status within society. Today, the role of a specialist in pediatric care remains a category of invaluable importance. The Master’s Degree in Pediatric Primary Care at TECH Global University is an entirely virtual program, supported by the Relearning technique, allowing you to acquire a broader range of knowledge effectively and dynamically. Our goal is to train physicians in a wide array of highly useful competencies through a carefully selected curriculum of 16 modules, covering topics such as newborn care, dermatology, gastroenterology, respiratory pathology and ENT, musculoskeletal system, ophthalmology, cardiology, and more. We will also thoroughly address pediatric emergencies, including meningitis and anaphylaxis. You will not find another program as comprehensive and flexible as this, thanks to our distance learning model.
Become a first-hand pediatrician
General knowledge is insufficient when it comes to providing healthcare to infants, children, and adolescents. Specialized theoretical foundations and skills are required to determine diagnoses and treatments that are fully trusted from a parental perspective. Knowledge of neuropsychiatric concepts, such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), can be immensely useful. Additionally, understanding allergies and pharmacology specific to early childhood is crucial when making assessments and prescribing medication. In our Master's Degree, you will learn all of these aspects and more. With a team of highly experienced and multidisciplinary instructors, we will equip you with the skills needed to excel in your career and achieve results that will truly surprise you. Pediatric care is an increasingly growing field, and with TECH, you can practice it successfully. Because childhood matters, and so does your calling to safeguard it. Take the step and study with the leading online university.
