Global population growth requires new advances in breeding and farming systems to ensure an adequate food supply"

Aquaculture is an activity of great relevance, since it has become one of the most economically important activities in the field of food production and for the breeding of live organisms for repopulation and for the cultivation of species for ornamental use, among others.

The cultivation of aquatic organisms on a large scale is relatively recent, but this is not the case with the practice of this activity on a small scale, since it has existed for some time in some countries. In addition, there are different models of aquaculture production that the professional in this field should know at the time of specialization, besides being important to have a deep knowledge of the physiological functioning of the different systems and devices that make up the anatomy of aquaculture species, not only to make the right decisions during the handling and management of an aquaculture facility, but also in the correct design of the production facilities.

In this postgraduate diploma, the professional will have in-depth knowledge of the main pathologies related to aquaculture, an absolutely current and extremely important subject, since pathological alterations in aquaculture production can become a real headache for those responsible for it. Thus, correct prevention to avoid the arrival or action of pathogens is essential in any production model. This implies maintaining suitable hygienic, food and environmental conditions, since most pathogens benefit from when the animals are under stress.

The most common pathologies in aquaculture include infectious agents of the most common groups, such as bacterial, viral, fungal and parasitic pathogens. Not all species are affected in the same way by the same pathogens, so specialized knowledge about the main causes of diseases in these species is necessary, a matter of extreme utility in health prevention. 

There is also a range of disorders caused by errors in feeding, either by inadequate dosage of the amount of feed or by failures in the formulation of the feed, which gives rise to a series of excesses or deficits of some essential components that can cause great productive losses, as well as other types of conditions such as neoplasms, disorders due to stress or the action of irritants, for example.

This postgraduate diploma provides students with specialized tools and skills to successfully develop their professional activity in the wide aquaculture environment, works on key competencies such as knowledge of the reality and daily practice of the professional, and it further promotes responsibility in the monitoring and supervision of their work, as well as communication skills through essential teamwork. In addition, as it is an online postgraduate diploma, the student is not constrained by fixed timetables or the need to move to another physical location, but can access the contents at any time of the day, balancing his or her work or personal life with their academic life.
