The globalization that has emerged in recent years and its relationship with animal health and, therefore, with public health is a topic of worldwide interest, where the increase in international trade and structural changes in the state have favored the emergence and spread of global health phenomena that represent risks, challenges and opportunities for producers and consumers. 

In spite of the important results achieved in disease control and prevention, there are still sanitary problems in the swine production sector that require a therapeutic solution. The sector continues to be threatened by new or re-emerging diseases, so that the use of antibacterial treatments is still a necessary tool in pig farming. 

However, the fight against diseases must be carried out in an integrated manner, on several fronts, such as hygienic measures for cleaning and disinfection, vector control, stress-free animal management, personnel hygiene, visitor control, animal quarantine, isolation and protection of buildings.  

Thus, the syllabus provides a solid and updated training in Swine Production and Health, enabling them to successfully address the work of veterinary specialists in companies and industries dedicated to swine production.
