Postgraduate Diploma in Epidemiology in Animal Health

.

Epidemiology in animal health is the branch of epidemiology dedicated to the study of diseases affecting animals and their relationship with the environment in which they live and reproduce. This discipline is responsible for the analysis and investigation of the distribution, risk factors and causes of animal diseases, in order to prevent and control them.

Epidemiology in animal health covers several areas, such as disease identification and monitoring, implementation of vaccination and control programs, and epidemiological surveillance to detect outbreaks and epidemics. It is also concerned with assessing the effects of environmental factors, such as climate and geography, on the spread of disease.

Professionals working in animal health epidemiology include veterinarians, biologists, microbiologists, epidemiologists and public health experts. These specialists cooperate with health authorities and other professionals involved in animal care, from diagnosing and treating diseases to implementing preventive measures and controlling their spread.

This online academic program seeks to provide students with a comprehensive training in animal health epidemiology. Students will learn about basic concepts in animal epidemiology, its history and evolution, and the importance of its application in animal health. In addition, they will be taught about the design and analysis of epidemiological studies in animals, from population selection to applied statistical methods. The program will also focus on pathologies and diseases in animal health, including diagnostic tests, zoonotic diseases and prevention and control techniques being available in the animal population. Finally, research and practical applications of epidemiology in animal health will be discussed, as well as ethics and responsibility in animal epidemiology research. Learning will take place through theoretical and practical modules, which will include exercises, teamwork, discussions and case studies.
