Do not miss the opportunity to study this postgraduate certificate in Software Programs for Wildlife Monitoring at TECH. It's the perfect opportunity to stand out and advance your career” 

Unlike other training programs, the postgraduate certificate in Software Programs for Wildlife Monitoring approaches wildlife management from an interdisciplinary point of view.

Wildlife management covers a wide spectrum of lines of research and action, in addition to the study of health surveillance and disease control, which is usually the general line of study in similar programs. However, in the future, veterinary professionals will have to face other lines of work in biodiversity conservation, which are also extensively developed throughout the syllabus.

Nowadays, it is difficult to find a program like this one, which provides students with specialized information in the use of the most common software in daily practice. Today there are many computer tools available that are considered necessary and that facilitate and increase the level of quality of work, which are considered necessary.  

Using GIS, it is possible to process and manage territorial data to represent results or interpret information on a large scale. In this way, it is, therefore, possible to plan in advance the lengths of a transect, plan territorial sampling points, analyze species richness and densities, combine environmental variables or model the most appropriate areas to geographically identify locations where a species can be found or reintroduced.

Species biology is not only based on theoretical knowledge, but also on spatial and geolocalized data. The only way to understand and visualize how species are distributed is by using Geographic Information Systems to represent and model the data.  

This complete training program is designed by professors with the highest recognized degree of specialization, thus guaranteeing its quality in all aspects in wildlife, both clinical and scientific. A unique opportunity to specialize in an area where professional positions are in high demand, from the hands of outstanding professionals.
