Humans have always aimed to explain the phenomena happening around us. In this Professional Master's Degree, we will learn to pose questions and doubts correctly in research, apply the scientific method, which is essential  to determine to relate events and confirm causality, or rule out the likelihood of happenstance. 

It will be essential to learn the different research methods and, at a practical level, know how to propose and use the most appropriate one in each situation. We will analyze the advances in care through nursing science, what we know as "evidence-based nursing" It is important to know what clinical trials are, and what differentiates them from other research studies. 

It is also essential to know how to shape the proposed research project, learning the process of writing a research protocol is the letter of introduction to other researchers in the scientific community. When a scientific study is proposed, we start from previous research, which provides our research with support because it is based on statements that have been previously confirmed by other authors and researchers and validated by the scientific community. It is, therefore, vital to know the citation process when making statements in a text. 

A comprehensive review of all the aspects required to carry out a thorough and quality nursing research project.

The various parameters that must be taken into account for the diagnosis, intervention and subsequent care of a disease are always circumscribed to previous and extensive scientific studies that rigorously weighed a great variety of data. Let us look at the example of vaccines: their effectiveness is framed by numerous investigations that include qualitative and quantitative aspects. It is an integral chain of several phases where every piece of data counts. A mere statistical error could lead to failures when it comes to immunizing a population, which would intrinsically represent a risk for the health of patients. Knowing how to do research is as fundamental as knowing how to take care of a sick person. In order for you to learn from the best experts in this field, our Professional Master's Degree is composed of a remarkable teaching team that will instruct you in detail in subjects such as data analysis and treatment, bioethics in Nursing research, statistics, among others. Through self-regulated online classes and advanced multimedia material, you will be able to take your career to the next level. Enroll in TECH and take advantage of your vocation.
