This Hybrid Master's Degree offers an exceptional preparation in which theoretical learning is complemented by high quality practical content in a first class hospital"

The specialties of Orthopedic Surgery and Traumatology are constantly being renewed. The volume of information in these fields increases exponentially every year and it is impossible for professionals to keep up to date in all areas without experienced pedagogical guidance. Although there are many educational programs in this healthcare field, there are few didactic experiences that deepen the assimilation of the practical tasks of the sector. In this context, this Hybrid Master's Degree from TECH has a positive impact by facilitating theoretical assimilation based on innovative contents and learning methods, and at the same time, it offers a practical and face-to-face stay in first class hospital facilities.

This program of studies delves into novel techniques such as joint replacements, spine surgery, arthroscopic, reparative or fracture management through osteosynthesis. At the same time, it examines the most advanced surgical equipment such as robotic and laparoscopic machines that facilitate the minimally invasive intervention of different orthopedic and traumatological complications. Through the mastery of all these skills, the specialist will analyze the most excellent methodologies to ensure the recovery of patients affected by various pathologies of the locomotor system.

This program is composed of two major educational moments. The first of these, from a more conventional point of view, delves into the theoretical study of the subject matter. The latter will be available on a 100% online and interactive platform, from where students will be able to access all the subjects with the simple help of a device connected to the Internet. In addition, methods such as Relearning will facilitate the development of essential knowledge in a fast and flexible way. On the other hand, in the practical phase, the student will join an institution specialized in the care of patients with orthopedic injuries and traumatological complications. This on-site and intensive stay will be extended for 3 weeks, from Monday to Friday, in 8-hour days. At the same time, students will be in direct contact with top professionals in the sector, acquiring first-hand practical skills.
