Learn how to develop a complete and well-founded research project in communication, incorporating the appropriate tools to traditional models and new paradigms”

Research in communication sciences has its own protocols. Learning to identify the right approach, depending on the purposes pursued in the project, and recognizing and mastering the right tools for its development, is not so easy. The speed of technological evolution, on the one hand, forces professionals to be in constant contact with innovation. On the other hand, changes in consumer profiles, attitudes and expectations, make the message itself and its reality changeable and different according to the variables involved. 

One of the major weaknesses in the world of communication research is the lack of specific training many professionals have upon completing their studies. They are asked to generate a research project without having been properly trained in the area. This shortcoming makes it impossible for them to undertake a research project with any expectations of success.

This program will provide students with a solid specialization that will cover all the phases involved in developing a feasible and substantiated research project. They will learn to identify the right approach based on the specific purposes of the project. They will also learn to select the best tools to gather and process information.

The update will also address the different methodologies and approaches used in research to teach our students to discern which is best suited for the purposes of their project.

In short, our students will have access to the work routines involved in conducting research in communication, and will develop the ability to successfully carry out any project.

With the guarantee and prestige of an online university that has already trained thousands of students.

A contextualized and real learning experience that you will be able to put into practice by means of new skills and competences”

Our teaching staff is made up of working professionals. That way, TECH is sure to offer students the update objective it aims to provide. A multidisciplinary team of trained and experienced professors in different environments, who will impart the theoretical knowledge in an efficient way, but above all, who will put at the service of the program the practical knowledge derived from their own experience; one of the differential qualities of this update course.

This mastery of the subject is complemented by the effectiveness of the methodological design of this postgraduate certificate. Developed by a multidisciplinary team of e-learning experts, it integrates the latest advances in educational technology. Students will cover with a range of convenient and versatile multimedia tools that will give them the operability they need during the training. 

The design of this program is based on Problem-Based Learning: an approach that conceives learning as a highly practical process. To do this remotely, TECH uses telepractice: with the help of an innovative, interactive video system and Learning from an Expert, our students will be able to acquire the knowledge as if they were facing the scenario they are working on in real life. A concept that will allow you to integrate and fix learning in a more realistic and permanent way.

Acquire the work routines any communication researcher must have and give your projects a highly competitive level of quality"
