This program is the best option you can find to specialize in Gestation Diagnosis and Ultrasound and make more accurate diagnoses"

From the earliest data on animal reproduction in Egyptian hieroglyphs, through the ancient veterinarians to the present day, humankind has always been interested in the study of animal reproduction to increase populations and obtain better yields.

Animal reproduction has evolved exponentially in recent decades and its current development means that technologies implemented a few years ago are now obsolete. Technique, science and human genius combine and bring, as a consequence, results identical to natural reproduction.

The objective of this program focuses on the mastery and control of all physiological, pathological and biotechnological aspects that affect the reproductive organ function of domestic animals. The species studied in this Postgraduate Certificate are: bovids, equidae, swine, sheep, goats and canids; a selection made based on the importance and development of assisted reproduction at present.

This Postgraduate Certificate has been developed to expand upon the current knowledge of the specialization in the different techniques of Gestation Diagnosis and Ultrasound 

The group of professors teaching the Postgraduate Certificate is made up of specialists in animal reproduction with more than 30 years of work experience, not only in the field of teaching, but also with practical activity, research and directly in livestock farms and animal reproduction centers. In addition, the teaching team is actively developing the latest techniques in assisted reproduction biotechnologies, making the genetic material of different species of international zootechnical interest available to the market.

The specialization will be based on the theoretical and scientific aspects, combining them with the practical and applicative professionalism of each of the subjects in the current work. Continuing education after completing undergraduate studies is sometimes complicated and difficult to balance with professional and personal activities, so with this Postgraduate Certificate, TECH gives students the opportunity to continue specializing online with a large amount of practical audiovisual support that will allow the student to advance in reproductive techniques in their work environment.
