Professional Master's Degree in Nursing Vaccines

It is interesting to see how the simple act of learning new things can beneficially revolutionize the world. During the 18th century, physician Edward Jenner learned by his own method that dairywomen in rural England were immune to smallpox from contact with cows. This led him to develop a type of inoculation as a check against the disease. Today, medical science is extremely grateful for his discovery and TECH Global University honors his contribution with the Professional Master's Degree in Vaccines in Nursing: an indispensable program as a complement in the healthcare field. Through a completely online content, we provide the option to optimize the student's competencies, delving into topics such as: epidemiology and immunization, legal aspects and logistics of vaccination, classification of vaccines, methodologies for nurses, among others.
