You will delve into the immunological aspects that influence Schizophrenia throughout this intensive 100% online academic itinerary”

##IMAGE##

Schizophrenia is a serious mental disorder that affects approximately 24 million people worldwide. Despite this, mental health professionals face daily challenges such as early diagnosis. This is because identifying such pathology in its early stages can be complicated, as the symptoms can be confused with other problems. Another challenge is to provide an individualized approach to treatment. Not all people with schizophrenia are the same, so they may respond differently to therapies. Hence the importance for psychologists to develop more precise tools such as biomarkers for a more accurate assessment. 

In this context, TECH will provide its students with a program that will analyze in detail the neuro-endocrinological basis of psychotic disorders, with emphasis on Schizophrenia. Designed by a well-versed teaching team, the curriculum will delve into the role of immunology in these mental disorders. In addition, the syllabus will address the neurobiological aspects of psychosis in the various stages of life (infantile-juvenile, adult and old age).The didactic materials will also focus on the etiopathogenesis of psychotic pathologies and their influence on the evolution of disorders. In this way, graduates will be able to implement preventive strategies aimed at reducing the incidence of these disorders. 

In addition, the only thing the students need is a device with Internet access( such as cell phone, computer or tablet) to access the Virtual Campus. In this sense, the schedules and evaluation chronograms can be planned individually. It should be noted that the syllabus will be based on the innovative Relearning teaching system that relies on repetition to guarantee the mastery of its different aspects. At the same time, it mixes the learning process with real situations so that knowledge is acquired in a natural and progressive way, without the extra effort of memorizing.
