Introduction to the Program
Estás a un solo clic de comenzar una experiencia académica con la que lograrás, de manera garantizada, poner tus conocimientos al día en Infectología, en tan solo 450 horas”
El área de la infectología siempre ha sido importante en el estudio de las enfermedades infecciosas, su control, prevención, tratamiento, etc. Sin embargo, en la época actual, no fue hasta la llegada del COVID-19 cuando la sociedad comenzó a comprender que los profesionales que se dedican a este sector cumplen una función vital. Gracias al incansable trabajo de miles de especialistas de todo el mundo, fue posible lanzar al mercado una serie de vacunas, sin las cuales no hubiese sido posible contener el avance del virus.
Esto fue gracias al conocimiento exhaustivo de la patología, como ha ocurrido con el SIDA o la tuberculosis, enfermedades que, a pesar de no estar erradicadas, han disminuido considerablemente el número de casos gracias a la aplicación de las estrategias médicas resultado de años de investigación. Es por ello que TECH ha considerado necesario el desarrollo de una titulación que permita al egresado estar al día de todas estas novedades. Así surge la Postgraduate diploma en Update in Infectious Diseases, un completo y dinámico programa con el cual el médico podrá ahondar en los avances de la investigación clínica en las enfermedades infecciosas, profundizar en el empleo de las TIC para el registro, seguimiento y vigilancia, y el cual hace especial hincapié en las causas y consecuencias del Coronavirus.
Para ello, el especialista contará con 450 horas del mejor material teórico, práctico y adicional, diseñado y seleccionado por expertos en el sector, los cuales formarán parte del claustro de esta titulación. Además, con el fin de que pueda compaginar a la perfección su puesta al día con la actividad de su consulta, el programa se presenta en un cómodo formato 100% online, sin clases presenciales ni horarios encorsetados, y que le permitirá contactarse siempre que quiera y pueda sin límites y desde cualquier dispositivo con conexión a internet.
La titulación universitaria incluye unas rigurosas Masterclass a cargo de un prestigioso Director Invitado Internacional.
Un reconocido Director Invitado Internacional ofrecerá unas intensivas Masterclasses que te mantendrán a la vanguardia de los avances más recientes en Infectología”
