The world's largest faculty of medicine”
Description
You will master, thanks to TECH, the latest therapeutic procedures to intervene in pathologies derived from Diabetes such as Cardiopathies and Retinopathies”
In recent times, the medical sciences have devoted a great deal of research to the search for more comprehensive diagnostic and treatment methods for hormonal and metabolic pathologies within the human body. This context has generated a continuous updating of strategies and techniques for the approach of patients suffering from health problems such as Diabetes, Obesity, Hypothyroidism, Thyroid, among others. At the same time, the Endocrinology professional faces a pedagogical market where the educational options do not address with equal relevance the theoretical and practical mastery of all these aspects.
TECH wants to distinguish itself in the midst of this context and therefore has designed a mode of study that fits the needs of the endocrinologist. This Hybrid professional master’s degree consists of two distinct stages, although, from each of them, the adequate preparation of students is guaranteed. Firstly, doctors will have a theoretical phase, with 1,920 hours of duration.
During this period, they will analyze the care modalities for various problems. Among them, the approach to women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and the necessary treatments to prevent infertility will be distinguished; also the strategies to monitor cardiac and visual pathologies derived from Diabetes, and much more. For the mastery of these contents, specialists will be supported by a 100% online learning platform and innovative didactic methods such as Relearning.
Upon completion of these theoretical studies, professionals will have the opportunity to carry out a practical and face-to-face stay in state-of-the-art hospitals. Their transit through these institutions, which lasts 3 weeks, will allow them to apply the procedures learned directly in real cases. In addition, they will be guided by experts of international prestige who will supervise their academic progress at the same time that they will facilitate the handling of complete tools that nowadays distinguish the evolution of the area of Endocrinology.
The teaching materials of this program, elaborated by these specialists, have contents that are completely applicable to your professional experiences"
This Hybrid professional master’s degree in Update in Endocrinology contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features include:
- Development of more than 100 clinical cases presented by endocrinologists with extensive experience in hormonal examination and nutritional care of patients with complex pathologies
- The graphic, schematic, and practical contents with which they are created, provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice
- Monitoring of patients undergoing innovative Artificial Nutrition treatments and innovative Insulinotherapies
- Clinical practice guidelines to develop a holistic approach to patients with Endocrinological emergencies
- An algorithm-based interactive learning system for decision-making in the clinical situations presented throughout the course
- All of this will be complemented by theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments
- Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection
- Furthermore, you will be able to carry out a clinical internship in one of the best hospital centers
Throughout the 3 weeks of this Hybrid professional master’s degree, you will analyze the most innovative treatments to stop infertility in women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome”
In this proposed Hybrid professional master’s degree, of professionalizing character and blended mode, the program is aimed at updating professionals in the field of Endocrinology who wish to be updated on the latest procedures for the diagnosis and treatment of pathologies analyzed by this medical specialty. The contents are based on the latest scientific evidence, and oriented in a didactic way to integrate theoretical knowledge in the health practice.
Thanks to the multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, Medicine professionals will benefit from contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive learning programmed to train in real situations. This program is designed around Problem-Based Learning, whereby the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise throughout the program. For this purpose, students will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts.
This study plan is all you need to get up to date on the most innovative hormonal tests that allow for more accurate diagnoses in today's endocrinology patients"
Update your skills in the management of insulin-dependent patients with Diabetes through the theoretical and practical contents of this program"
Teaching Planning
The academic agenda of this study program is composed of 10 modules, with various topics of interest. Throughout their theoretical learning, endocrinologists will be updated on the latest developments to diagnose and treat diseases related to the Hypothalamus, Pituitary, Thyroid glands, among others. Likewise, the program delves into the most advanced therapeutics for disorders that severely affect the quality of life of patients such as Diabetes and Obesity. At the same time, it delves into Nutrition and Dietetics for real cases with various types of endocrinological conditions and the clinical and surgical solutions to this kind of medical problem.
The theoretical phase of this Hybrid professional master’s degree has multimedia resources, such as videos and infographics, to help you assimilate its contents in a fast and flexible way”
