Learn about the latest advances in biomechanics and voice evaluation and acquire the essential skills for the new professional landscape"

Broadcasters, journalists, sales representatives, announcers, actors, singers, etc., require knowledge and management of their phonatory apparatus since its use is essential for their work. In this sense, it is also important to know the multifactorial nature of the voice and its alterations. The changes that occur in the human voice over time are related, among other factors, to the maturation and development of the phonorespiratory system, as well as to its deterioration. Another type of change is due to sex-related differences. There are also modifications in the voice due to professional use and to structural and functional alterations associated or not with other pathologies. And all of this is evident in both the normal voice and the pathological voice.

For all these reasons, knowledge on using one's own voice, programs for preventing disorders and Biomechanics and Voice Evaluation in Medicine as applied to the use in different contexts, are crucial elements in the health, well-being and development of any speaker.

This type of training makes professionals in this field increase their ability to succeed, which results in better practice and performance that will have a direct impact on their professional work, both in the teaching field and in the field of professional communication.

These studies can facilitate access to employment in this field given the existing lack of such professionals in this complex field of Biomechanics and Voice Evaluation.

This program offers a very broad view of vocal pathology and voice physiology, with examples of successful cases. It includes all the necessary and basic techniques for the preparation and re-education of the voice, taking into account the professions that use it as their main working tool, providing tools, experiences and advances in this field, which have also been guaranteed by the teaching staff on the course, since all of them work in the field. Professionals will learn based on professional experience as well as evidence-based pedagogy, which makes student training more effective and accurate.
